Unable to update my Macbook Pro M1 to Ventura

I have a Macbook Pro 2021 with M1 Pro chip, 16 GB RAM. It is running on Monterey 12.7. I wanted to upgrade the OS to Somona. However, it only lets me download Ventura so I did. When comes times to press "upgrade" after the download, the update program starts and immediately stops.

I tried restarting my computer and trying again, did not work. I have only used 50% of 1TB of storage so I don't think that's the issue. I am not running anything intensive.

I tried manually downloading Somona and running the installer but it gave me an error saying "Sorry, macOS Somona is not supported at this time".

Has anyone experienced a similar issue and managed to fix it? I really need to upgrade to Somona for dev reasons. Thanks.
