Well, if all else fails, I guess we could just throw a bunch of random values in a hat and pick one. That's how I usually solve my TensorFlow problems!

Ooh, I've heard of sparse_column_with_keys before. That could be an interesting option too. Might have to do some more research on that one.

Hold up, what about option C? Isn't that specifically designed for handling unknown values? Seems like the logical choice to me.

I'm not so sure, I think option A might be more suitable for this scenario.

Hmm, I'm not sure about that. Shouldn't we be using something like categorical_column_with_vocabulary_list instead? That seems more straightforward.

I think option B is the way to go. Using a hash bucket is a great way to handle unknown values in a categorical column.

I prefer option B as well, using a hash bucket seems like a flexible solution.

I think option A could also work well if you have a list of possible values for the column.

I'm not sure, but I think it's either A or C. We can use categorical_column_with_unknown_values if we don't know all possible values.

I agree with Sabrina, because it allows us to specify a list of possible values for the column.
