Error when installing ladybug on MacOS

I have a few students who have been getting the following error when installing Labybug tools 1.8 on macOS 15.3.2 (I think on M1 chips) with Rhino 8

Installing lbt-dragonfly==0.11.4 via pip using

/Users/name/ladybug_tools/python/bin/python3

Any ideas how to address this

Runtime error (Win32Exception): An error occurred trying to start process ‘/ Users/name/ladybug_tools/python/bin/python3’ with working directory

‘/’. Bad CPU type in executable
