### Steps to reproduce the bug

I'm running an MLOps flow using AzureML.  
The error appears when I run the following function in my training script:

```python
data_tokenized = data.map(partial(funcs.tokenize_function, tokenizer,
                                      seq_length),
                              batched=True,
                              batch_size=batch_size,
                              remove_columns=['col1', 'col2'])
```

```python
def tokenize_function(tok, seq_length, example)
    # Pad so that each batch has the same sequence length
    inp = tok(example['col1'], padding=True, truncation=True)
    outp = tok(example['col2'], padding="max_length", max_length=seq_length)

    res = {
        'input_ids': inp['input_ids'],
        'attention_mask': inp['attention_mask'],
        'decoder_input_ids': outp['input_ids'],
        'labels': outp['input_ids'],
        'decoder_attention_mask': outp['attention_mask']
    }
    return res
```

### Expected behavior

Processing proceeds without errors.  I ran this same workflow 2 weeks ago without a problem.  I recreated the environment since then but it doesn't appear that datasets versions have changed since Dec. '23.  

### Environment info

datasets 2.16.1
transformers 4.35.2
pyarrow 15.0.0
pyarrow-hotfix 0.6
torch 2.0.1

I'm not using the latest transformers version because there was an error due to a conflict with Azure mlflow when I tried the last time.
