Sagemaker endpoint endlessly "Creating" after Huggingface fetch error

I attempted to create an endpoint using the huggingface features of the sagemaker package for Python

from sagemaker.huggingface import HuggingFaceModel
import sagemaker

role = sagemaker.get_execution_role()
# Hub Model configuration. https://huggingface.co/models
hub = {
	'HF_MODEL_ID':'MY_ACC/MY_MODEL_NAME',
	'HF_TASK':'text-generation'
}

# create Hugging Face Model Class
huggingface_model = HuggingFaceModel(
	transformers_version='4.6.1',
	pytorch_version='1.7.1',
	py_version='py36',
	env=hub,
	role=role, 
)

# deploy model to SageMaker Inference
predictor = huggingface_model.deploy(
	initial_instance_count=1, # number of instances
	instance_type='ml.m5.xlarge' # ec2 instance type
)

predictor.predict({
	'inputs': "Can you please let us know more details about your "
})

MY_ACC/MY_MODEL_NAME is a private model, so the endpoint creation kept outputting the following errors:

This is an experimental beta features, which allows downloading model from the Hugging Face Hub on start up. It loads the model defined in the env var `HF_MODEL_ID`

It seems like there is a never-ending loop of checking for this resource that it cannot find. I have killed the Python process that started the endpoint creation, but it has carried on regardless.

How do I fix this? I just want to delete the endpoint, but that option is greyed-out as it is still in the creation phase.

Thanks
