 note: This error originates from a subprocess, and is likely not a problem with pip.

      note: This is an issue with the package mentioned above, not pip.
      hint: See above for output from the failure.

It's hard to say from what you've posted but for me it was that I used python 3.10. ChatterBot only works up to python 3.8 (see info in release 1.0.7 here: https://github.com/gunthercox/ChatterBot/releases). So check what version of python you have installed. If it's higher than 3.8 it might be the problem.

Could you try installing a specific version:

pip install chatterbot==1.0.2

or

pip install chatterbot==1.0.4

Change the version as needed.
