I fixed the bug in my notebook with the following code

query_response = query(model_predictor, NAXOS_TAVERNA)
json_string = json.dumps(query_response)
encoded_bytes = json_string.encode('utf-8')
final_query_response = bytearray(encoded_bytes)
normalized_boxes, classes_names, confidences = parse_response(final_query_response)
