Research direction

Start by reproducing the import from prep_data.py line 21 in the Azure ML Jupyter environment and compare the installed azureml-core 1.48.0, azureml-pipeline-core 1.48.0, and typing_extensions 4.5.0 versions. Trace the failure through azure/core/tracing/decorator.py; done means the Azure ML pipeline imports successfully without the ParamSpec error.

Description

Hello,
I have this message appeared while running Azure ML pipeline run in Jupyter notebook.
The full error messages is following:

I am wondering if that could be related to memory issues, as some people on the web suggested?
I am running only one pipeline for testing, and I load my data off my local folder and upload to default_datastore.
Any other ideas?

Few details about packages I use:
azureml-core 1.48.0
azureml-pipeline-core 1.48.0
typing_extensions 4.5.0

Any other packages you would like to know about?
Thank you
