Mary likes to play football in her freetime whenever she meets with her friends that are very nice people.

could be split into

How to use it in your code:

from transformers import AutoTokenizer, AutoModelForSeq2SeqLM
tokenizer = AutoTokenizer.from_pretrained("flax-community/t5-v1_1-base-wikisplit")
model = AutoModelForSeq2SeqLM.from_pretrained("flax-community/t5-v1_1-base-wikisplit")

complex_sentence = "This comedy drama is produced by Tidy , the company she co-founded in 2008 with her husband David Peet , who is managing director ."
sample_tokenized = tokenizer(complex_sentence, return_tensors="pt")

answer = model.generate(sample_tokenized['input_ids'], attention_mask = sample_tokenized['attention_mask'], max_length=256, num_beams=5)
gene_sentence = tokenizer.decode(answer[0], skip_special_tokens=True)
gene_sentence

"""
Output:
This comedy drama is produced by Tidy. She co-founded Tidy in 2008 with her husband David Peet, who is managing director.
