.ARW file not opening on MacBook Pro

I just bought the sony A7iv and the Tamaron 28-75mm lens and the .ARW files are not opening on the MacBook Pro (13-inch, M1, 2020). Is there an application that I can use to open them ?

MacBook Pro 13″, macOS 12.3

No preview in finder I have a Sony A7R3 (7RM3A) and the .ARW files cannot be previewed on my Macbook pro running Monterey 12.3. As a professional photographer, this is a serious interruption to workflow. As both the camera, and this version of OS has been around for some time now I'm not sure why this hasn't been addressed yet. I have always been able to see previews of raw files created with other camera models.

MacOS does include support for RAW image files. Have you talked to Sony about the issue?
