Can llama3.2 vision accept no image?

[TQA-task]

Hello,

thank you for thegreat work.
I have been trying to expermint with the model and see how it works.

My question is:
Can I use llama3.2 vision to cover cases where there is no image?

I tried set the value of the image variable to None or even delete it but I alawys get:
ValueError: Invalid input type. Must be a single image, a list of images, or a list of batches of images.
OR
ValueError: No image were provided, but there are image tokens in the prompt

Can you show your code?

like in this:

question = row['Question']
options = row['AnswerChoices']

message = (f"Answer the question with the correct option letter. "
               f"Question: {question}\nOptions: {options}")

messages = [
        {"role": "user", "content": [
            {"type": "text", "text": message}
        ]}
    ]

  
input_text = processor.apply_chat_template(messages, add_generation_prompt=True)

inputs = processor(
        input_text,
        add_special_tokens=False,
        return_tensors="pt"
    ).to(model.device)

output = model.generate(**inputs, max_new_tokens=30)
response = processor.decode(output[0])

return response

I have also tried sending None for the image but got error
