or we could just remove it, but fine to keep it as a subtask i guess

shouldn't we replace by

well no, because since those examples were created, we added dedicated pipelines for both summarization and translation, iiuc, cc @SBrandeis

or is it not how it works? ^^'

[Text-to-Text generation models](https://huggingface.co/models?pipeline_tag=text2text-generation&sort=downloads) have a separate pipeline called `text2text-generation`. This pipeline takes an input containing the sentence including the task and returns the output of the accomplished task.

```python
from transformers import pipeline

text2text_generator = pipeline("text2text-generation")
text2text_generator("question: What is 42 ? context: 42 is the answer to life, the universe and everything")
[{'generated_text': 'the answer to life, the universe and everything'}]

text2text_generator("translate from English to French: I'm very happy")
[{'generated_text': 'Je suis très heureux'}]
```

You can use [huggingface.js](https://github.com/huggingface/huggingface.js) to infer text classification models on Hugging Face Hub.

This still exists in transformers, so I'm not entirely sure we should remove it

I'd suggest we keep it here but add a "historical note" comment. cc @LysandreJik @ArthurZucker for viz
