There is a publicly accessible ImageNet 2012 dataset in TFRecord format hosted on Kaggle. I’ve used it to train a pretrained weight-free keras model in a TPU-based accelerator and showed fine tuning on a different data set. In case you’re interested to hands on ImageNet on TPU, you may want to try it:

Downstread Dataset: 130k Images (128x128) - Universal Image Embeddings
Disclaimer: As there are some access restrictions or formalities to acquire ImageNet, I’m not sure how it violates the rules to upload data on the kaggle platform.
