I am not entirely certain, but it seems like Macbook doesn't work with the current default install (at least when I do it manually) since it installs x86-64 versions of the packages when Mac needs ARM64. I am not sure whether it is a general problem, but seems good to flag.

Solution
curl -L https://github.com/conda-forge/miniforge/releases/latest/download/Miniforge3-MacOSX-arm64.sh -o Miniforge3-MacOSX-arm64.sh
sh Miniforge3-MacOSX-arm64.sh
Conda init zsh
CONDA_SUBDIR=osx-arm64 conda create -n my_arm64_env python=3.11
conda create -n my_arm64_env python=3.11
conda activate my_arm64_env
conda config --env --set subdir osx-arm64
# Check whether python is running on the right platform
python -c "import platform; print(platform.machine())"
Very true; in general most of these packages will require different versions for arm64 vs. x86_64 (as well as for METAL vs. Nvidia vs. AMD GPU). Often, this is handled automatically, but not always.
