Python:

    import time
    import math
    import numpy as np
    
    N = 1000000
    SN = math.floor(math.sqrt(N))
    sieve = [False] * N
    
    def init_sieve():
        for i in range(2, SN):
            if not sieve[i]:
                k = i*2
                while k < N:
                    sieve[k] = True
                    k += i
            
    
    def count_primes(n: int) -> int:
        return (N-2) - sum(sieve)
    
    start = time.perf_counter()
    init_sieve()
    print(f"Number of primes: {count_primes(N)}")
    print(f"time elapsed: {time.perf_counter() - start}/s")

Taichi:

    import taichi as ti
    import time
    import math
    ti.init(arch=ti.cpu)
    
    N = 1000000
    SN = math.floor(math.sqrt(N))
    sieve = ti.field(ti.i8, shape=N)
    
    @ti.kernel
    def init_sieve():
        for i in range(2, SN):
            if sieve[i] == 0:
                k = i*2
                while k < N:
                    sieve[k] = 1
                    k += i
            
    @ti.kernel
    def count_primes(n: int) -> int:
        count = 0
        for i in range(2, N):
            if (sieve[i] == 0):
                count += 1
        return count
    
    start = time.perf_counter()
    init_sieve()
    print(f"Number of primes: {count_primes(N)}")
    print(f"time elapsed: {time.perf_counter() - start}/s")

(The difference of using 0 vs False is tiny; I had just been poking at the python code to think about how I'd make it more pythonic and see if that made it worse to do taichi)
