Unable to install seeing_is_believing on Apple M1

[chrisgeek]

When I run gem install seeing_is_believing, I get the error below

Function.c:867:17: error: call to undeclared function 'ffi_prep_closure'; ISO C99 and later do not support implicit function declarations [-Wimplicit-function-declaration]
    ffiStatus = ffi_prep_closure(code, &fnInfo->ffi_cif, callback_invoke, closure);

Ruby version: 3.0.2

I'm also having problems on M2:
