Problem with downloading Faiss

[choiyingoh]

When running the code pip install -r requirements.txt, encountered with the issue:

error: subprocess-exited-with-error

× Building wheel for faiss-cpu (pyproject.toml) did not run successfully.
│ exit code: 1
╰─> [8 lines of output]

[end of output]

note: This error originates from a subprocess, and is likely not a problem with pip.
ERROR: Failed building wheel for faiss-cpu
Failed to build faiss-cpu
ERROR: Could not build wheels for faiss-cpu, which is required to install pyproject.toml-based projects

How should I resolve this?

You are probably using python 3.12, FAISS is only available up to python 3.11 at the moment.
