Hi everyone, i’ve run into an issue with getting pymc to work on my computer. I am using a Macbook Air, Apple M2 Chip. Fresh computer, which has never had pymc installed on it before.
Similar to this post I have recently installed pymc in a fresh conda environment using the installation guidelines. But when I try to import the package either via a jupyter notebook or via Visual Studio Code the script hangs. To troubleshoot I have tried restarting my computer, reinstalling the environment, this answer here. Of which I have had little success.
This is my current environment, note that when I install using conda create -c conda-forge -n pymc_env "pymc>=5"
I get python 3.12.5. Below is the output of conda list

Does anyone have any ideas as to why this might be happening? Or a specific installation of pymc that its known to work on my computer set-up. Any help would be greatly appreciated .
Cheers,
