That’s a really good idea lol. I’ll try that and get back to you.

As an aside, do you always do this to test your process?

Every time! Training can take a long time so I’d hate to walk away and come back the next day and see it stuck 😭 this will work even if your labels are incorrect.

I also do this. Always verify that the model is actually able to learn “something”. After that you can go ahead and solve the task at hand. That way, you can be (more) sure about your model working correctly.
