Unable to invoke local for AW Python Serverless template code

I’m trying to create my 1st Python Lambda function. When I tried to execute the function locally, it errors out using template code from Serverless without me changing anything. See below to reproduce.

What I did was the following:
I didn’t change any code. I just used the template code that Serverless created
sls create --template aws-python --path helloworld

Then I deployed the code
sls deploy

I tried to see if I invoke the function on Lambda:
$ sls invoke -f hello
{
“body”: “{“input”: {}, “message”: “Go Serverless v1.0! Your function executed successfully!”}”,
“statusCode”: 200
}

Now I try to execute the same code locally:
$ sls invoke local -f hello
