The install is successful. I receive this error when trying to import.
TypeError: 'numpy._DTypeMeta' object is not subscriptable
I have tried higher and lower versions of numpy (1.22.0,1.23.0,1.24.0,1.25.0,1.25.2). I installed mediapipe via pypi as well as a downloaded whl ( mediapipe-0.10.3-cp311-cp311-manylinux_2_17_x86_64.manylinux2014_x86_64.whl) from pypi
Versions
numpy 1.21.5
mediapipe 0.10.3
Python 3.10.6
These questions are similar but not the answer.

I had this error while importing CV2. For this, use 1.20.0 version of numpy.
pip install numpy==1.20.0
Updating numpy to 1.23 works. I was not restarting the kernel after installing versions of numpy. With notebook-scoped libraries, use dbutils.library.restartPython(). If you are using cluster-scoped libraries, then be sure to restart your cluster.
There's an issue about this that's documented on the OpenCV repo here:
In short, it imported successfully with most numpy>=1.22.0 versions.
Just be careful, if you use some of the most recent library versions, like numpy>=1.25.0, you start running into other compatibility issues.
I came across this problem when installing OpenCV(2) for PyAutoGUI. Specifically, I tried to use PyAutoGUI's locateOnScreen feature, and it told me that I needed OpenCV for the confidence parameter.
I installed OpenCV with pip install opencv-python, then tried importing PyAutoGUI again.
It threw an error that traced to OpenCV, similar to what the OP encountered:
TypeError: 'numpy._DTypeMeta' object is not subscriptable.
I had previously messed with numpy for machine learning, and I believe that was the issue; running pip install numpy==1.23.0 fixed it.
I solved the problem in 2 steps:
1. !pip install numpy --upgrade
2. Restart the kernel
Now, everything worked like a charm. Special thanks to gruvw.
