Why & How

MvNormal was switched from SVD to Cholesky decomposition by default. This is brittle for many GPs, therefore PyMC > 5.22.0 will defaults Latent GP conditionals to method="svd" (via pymc-devs/pymc#7755).
The example notebook includes manually created MvNormals that also need method="svd" to work.

I also switched from numpyro back to the default sampler, because I couldn't install numpyro on my Windows.

See pymc-devs/pymc#7754.
