[FIXED] Unable to install tensorflow using conda with python 3.8

Issue

Recently, I upgraded to Anaconda3 2020.07 which uses python 3.8. In past versions of anaconda, tensorflow was installed successfully. Tensorflow failed to be installed successfully in this version.

I ran the command below;

conda install tensorflow-gpu

The error message that I received is shown below;

UnsatisfiableError: The following specifications were found
to be incompatible with the existing python installation in your environment:

Specifications:

  - tensorflow-gpu -> python[version='3.5.*|3.6.*|3.7.*|>=3.7,<3.8.0a0|>=3.6,<3.7.0a0|>=3.5,<3.6.0a0|>=2.7,<2.8.0a0']

Your python: python=3.8

If python is on the left-most side of the chain, that's the version you've asked for.
When python appears to the right, that indicates that the thing on the left is somehow
not available for the python version you are constrained to. Note that conda will not
change your python version to a different minor version unless you explicitly specify
that.

The following specifications were found to be incompatible with your CUDA driver:

  - feature:/win-64::__cuda==11.0=0

Your installed CUDA driver is: 11.0

Is there a conda command with the right parameters to get tensorflow installed successfully?

Solution

Latest development for tensorflow installation on anaconda.

https://anaconda.org/anaconda/tensorflow https://anaconda.org/anaconda/tensorflow-gpu

9 days ago, Anaconda uploaded a new tensorflow v2.3 package. Anaconda3 2020.07 (uses python v3.8) users can easily upgrade to tensorflow v2.3 with the following commands;

conda install -c anaconda tensorflow
conda install -c anaconda tensorflow-gpu

I have personally tested that the installation worked successfully.

The other answers for this question have now become obsolete.
