Fix JaxRuntimeError

in JAX

Solution

JaxRuntimeError often arises from conflicting setups or initialization attempts with PJRT devices (like CUDA) where resources are already claimed. To fix it, ensure consistent device selection (e.g., using `jax.default_backend()` or `jax.devices()`) and avoid redundant initialization of the same device in different parts of your code or across multiple processes. Carefully examine your environment setup, especially when using multi-GPU or multi-process setups, and restart the runtime/kernel if necessary.
