“zsh: illegal hardware instruction python” when Tensorflow on macbook pro M1

I've followed every step of this question

Install a venv: python3 -m venv venv. drag the install_venv.sh (which is located within the downloaded folder) file to the terminal, add -p at the end. select the directory of the venv as the location where tensorflow should be installed. activate the venv. type "python".

Try to import tensorflow: import tensorflow as tf.

I'm running my terminal not rosetta (which was the solution to the other problem):

(base) user@useros ~ % uname -m
arm64

When I activate my environment I still get:

(venv) (base) user@useros ~ % uname -m
arm64

If I run file $(which python) I get the following: On base:

(base) user@useros ~ % file $(which python)
/Users/user/opt/anaconda3/bin/python: Mach-O 64-bit executable x86_64

On venv:

(venv) (base) user@useros ~ % file $(which python)
/Users/user/venv/bin/python: Mach-O 64-bit executable x86_64

Why do I get 'Mach-O 64-bit executable x86_64' here even though I get 'arm64' before? This confuses me and is probably the reason why my code is not working.

Try creating conda env with miniforge3 and install TensorFlow on the M1

Tensorflow on Apple M1 Pro and M1 Max

If not interested in miniforge3 the following worked for me:

tensorflow.org pip install instructions

For Macbook pro M1, Tensorflow support is still ongoing. Please take a look at this comment.
