I've been trying to use Google Colab to render animations but I can't get it to render using the graphics card. I change the hardware accelerator to GPU, but it doesn't use the GPU to render it only uses the RAM, I think this is the case because it doesn't use any of the GPU RAM, and when I change the hardware accelerator to None it still works the same. In the .blend file the render settings are Cycles, GPU Compute.

This is the line I use to render, maybe something's wrong with it.
