    Here are some things you can try.

    1. Install latest version of python for your system from the official python repository https://www.python.org/downloads/

    2. Restart Terminal/Vscode where you are attempting to run python

    On mac as far as I remember there is only python3 alias, so to use python you type python3. You can also add other interpreter by adding line like

    # Change path to your interpreter
PATH="/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/3.1/bin:${PATH}" 
export PATH

    to your .zshrc file(open for example with nano ~/.zshrc)
