Upgrade PyTorch requirements from ">=1.10.0,<2.0" to "2.0.1" about synthcity

[HLasse]

Any updates on this,@robsdavis? Is is being worked on or is it off the table for now? Upgrading the supported pytorch versions would be of immense help for us! :)

Hi Kacper,

Yes, this work is planned for development soon and an issue already exists for this work, #171. Unfortunately, because of various dependencies it is quite a big job, requiring careful consideration. Nevertheless, I hope to get back to you with this improvement soon.

Until then there is a solution to your issue that doesn't involve breaking Synthcity's requirements. torchaudio comes pre-installed on some environments, for example the most recent google Colab environment, however Synthcity does not require torchaudio at all. So, you can simply pip uninstall torchaudio and the conflict should disappear. If you do in fact need torchaudio for your work, you will need to install an earlier version that is compatible with torch 1.13.1.

And on the issue of the PyTorch installation prior to installing synthcity, yes that is necessary in order for everything to resolve correctly. If you have cloned the repo, you can do it simply with pip install -r prereq.txt.

I'm also asking for this upgrade, please.
