Hey, please use "Reply All" when you reply (As someone else already told you before I saw), as otherwise the response only goes to me directly and nobody else can follow along or help you.
After a quick online search it seems that this error means you don't have Rosetta installed, this is the emulation layer that Apple provides to run Apps built for Intel on Apple Silicon Mac.
If you run this in your Terminal, it might not say "rosetta installed": "if /usr/bin/pgrep -q oahd; then echo 'rosetta installed'; fi"
I'd try Postgres.app from the download page I mentioned, or install Rosetta: "`/usr/sbin/softwareupdate --install-rosetta --agree-to-license"`

Go to https://postgresapp.com/downloads.html, download the app, install and connect to the running instance with your Postgres GUI client of choice. If it's an important part of your studies you should be able to figure out to get it running too.
The error message you originally shared isn't a Postgres issue but a macOS issue.
