    Parameters
    ----------
    name : str
        A model name listed by `clip.available_models()`, or the path to a model checkpoint containing the state_dict

    device : Union[str, torch.device]
        The device to put the loaded model

    jit : bool
        Whether to load the optimized JIT model or more hackable non-JIT model (default).

    download_root: str

    -------
    model : torch.nn.Module

        A torchvision transform that converts a PIL image into a tensor that the returned model can take as its input
