[Beginner Question] Trouble using view()

vision
1

“real” is a mini-batch and the goal is to make a copy of that batch called “adv_ex” and add small amounts of noise (gen(item)) to each image in adv_ex, however, it throws an error that indicates that I’m using a view incorrectly. Any help interpreting this error? Thanks

RuntimeError: A view was created in no_grad mode and its base or another view of its base has been modified inplace with grad mode enabled. This view is the output of a function that returns multiple views. Such functions do not allow the output views to be modified inplace. You should replace the inplace operation by an out-of-place one.

Could you post a minimal, executable code snippet to reproduce the issue, please?
Based on the error message and the posted code snippet it’s a bit hard to give a proper debugging advice besides repeating the error message.
