I'm wondering about the purpose of the CLS token. I've encountered it in some contexts related to natural language processing, but I'm not sure what it's specifically used for.

    This conversion involves transforming the tokens into embeddings.

    In contrast, the (sep) token is utilized to signify the termination of each sentence.

    Prior to inputting these tokens into the Bert model, a conversion process takes place.

    The embeddings are generated using a layer known as the token embedding layer.
