I just purchased a new MacBook Air. I set it up yesterday. Today, I go to log in and apparently I do not have my password. I have tried and tried and am stuck.

I cannot log in. How do I do it when there is not a place to reset password? Apparently, this is not the same as my Apple ID.

MacBook Air, macOS 12.5
