There seems to be multiple folders inside /Users/$user/.aws-sam/aws-sam-cli-app-templates/python3.8-image

cookiecutter-aws-sam-hello-python-lambda-image
cookiecutter-ml-apigw-pytorch
cookiecutter-ml-apigw-scikit-learn
cookiecutter-ml-apigw-tensorflow
cookiecutter-ml-apigw-xgboost

There's a known issue with this right now, if you run sam init interactively (without parameters) that is a workaround for now.

The issue is fixed in V.1.24.0
you can now use the --app-template argument to resolve this. For example:

sam init --name foo --package-type Image --base-image amazon/python3.8-base --app-template hello-world-lambda-image
