Hello.

The Amazon Linux 2023 repository does not seem to contain MySQL.  
https://docs.aws.amazon.com/linux/al2023/release-notes/support-info-by-package.html

Therefore, the following installation procedure must be used.  
```
sudo su -
dnf -y localinstall https://dev.mysql.com/get/mysql80-community-release-el9-4.noarch.rpm
dnf -y install mysql mysql-community-client
```
If you are installing MySQL Server as well as MySQL Client, please also execute the following commands.  
```
dnf install mysql-community-server
```

Answer

Update all the package using below command and then try installing MySql:

sudo yum update -y

sudo yum install mysql -y
