Describe the issue

Both "Translation LLM" samples appear not working anymore (sample 1, sample 2).
The SDK fails to create the endpoint using the cloud-translate-text LLM provided in the documentation:

from google.cloud import aiplatform

endpoint = aiplatform.Endpoint('projects/PROJECT_ID/locations/LOCATION/publishers/google/models/cloud-translate-text')
...

Error:
