Installing Kotlin-Jupyter: e: java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: Could not initialize class org.jetbrains.kotlin.com.intellij.pom.java.LanguageLevel

I had the exact same issue on Android Studio and solved it by updating the Kotlin Gradle plugin from version 1.4.31 to version 1.5.30.

classpath "org.jetbrains.kotlin:kotlin-gradle-plugin:1.5.30"

In my project-level build.gradle file.
