### Additional information

installed using stability matrix

Start with launch.py and modules/initialize.py, then follow the traceback through modules/sd_samplers_kdiffusion.py and repositories/k-diffusion/k_diffusion/evaluation.py to the installed clip package. Reproduce the first-run launch in the reported Python 3.10.11 environment and confirm that the web UI loads without the ImportError.
