Aesara is currently pinned and can't be updated to the latest version until https://github.com/aesara-devs/aesara/issues/707 is fixed. That means we also don't get the NumPy 1.22 compatibility fix until we can upgrade. Until that Aesara upgrade we'll want to pin `numpy<1.22.0` and keep this issue open until we can upgrade Aesara *and* remove the NumPy version pin. *For stability, we should still pin Aesara at the minor, or even the patch version.*
