Make sure BERT model does not load pretrained weights?
I want to make sure my BertModel does not loads pre-trained weights. I am using auto class (hugging face) which loads model automatically.
My question is how do I load bert model without pretrained weights?

Use AutoConfig instead of AutoModel:
from transformers import AutoConfig
config = AutoConfig.from_pretrained('bert-base-uncased')
model =  AutoModel.from_config(config)

this should set up the model without loading the weights.
