tensorflow_core dependency issue, cannot run script

[tnicolen]

Is there a workaround to installing an older version of tensorflow (no module named tensorflow_core) and avoid downgrading to Python 3.6? I've tried downgrading from 3.9 to 3.6 in the venv and thru Anaconda, but neither works on my machine (MacOS). Without installing tensorflow==2.0.1, the script won't run. I would use the install wizard, but my data are not ALEX. Please advise on possible solutions. Thanks.
