I was going through this tutorial and following along with this youtube video as well:

Beyond Jupyter Notebooks (Windows 11/WSL2): MLOps Environment Setup & First Deployment
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=C7fBf33nQ7E

In the part of both the tutorial and the video, in the section where you're supposed to select the python interpreter on vscode, both the tutorial and the video select an interpreter located on windows and not the one installed on ubuntu on WSL. The reason for this is that you selected a python.exe file which does not exist in the ubuntu conda environment. Both the tutorial and the video are not using the python interpreter from the conda environment on ubuntu but the one on windows.

You should update the tutorial to include that the WSL extension needs to be installed on vscode and that you need to remote into ubuntu on WSL as shown in the following articles:

Once you remote into WSL2 from vscode (or run it from the terminal using code .) then you can select the interpreter that was installed in the ubuntu conda install.
