I am trying to update sudo apt, with the simple command. But I am completely new to ubuntu, and I receive the following error:

Err:12 https://ppa.launchpadcontent.net/ubuntu-audio-dev/alsa-daily/ubuntu jammy Release
  404  Not Found [IP: 2620:2d:4000:1::3e 443]

W: https://dl.yarnpkg.com/debian/dists/stable/InRelease: Key is stored in legacy trusted.gpg keyring (/etc/apt/trusted.gpg), see the DEPRECATION section in apt-key(8) for details.
E: The repository 'https://ppa.launchpadcontent.net/ubuntu-audio-dev/alsa-daily/ubuntu jammy Release' does not have a Release file.
N: Updating from such a repository can't be done securely, and is therefore disabled by default.
N: See apt-secure(8) manpage for repository creation and user configuration details.

Can someone suggest what should I do to fix it?

remove the ppa's that error out or adjust the line to a correct one. See"setting" in "software update" in the menu.

A quick look at using my browser (*copy link from your paste & right-click to open in new tab*) & details on screen & it shows you trying to use a PPA or 3rd party *personal package archive* which doesn't support your release. PPAs are 3rd party so all security checks as to content, safe or not, good for your system are on you to perform - did you perform any? It doesn't provide support for *jammy* or 22.04 should have told you before adding it wasn't going to be good.

A look at https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-audio-dev/+archive/ubuntu/alsa-daily (*pre-adding usually*) to ensure it's safe, trustworthy etc. should have told you it hasn't seen attention since 2019; however you Ubuntu 22.04 LTS release is the 2022-April release which is newer; thus unless your purpose is to explore problems using *abandoned* software it'll have nothing safe for you... Clicking on the "*filter*" (published in drop down) won't list your *jammy* release etc. support up to 19.04 (*disco*) last! Fix is to remove it & check before adding next time when dealing with PPAs

Most people don’t grasp that asking a lot of questions unlocks learning and improves interpersonal bonding. In Alison’s studies, for example, though people could accurately recall how many questions had been asked in their conversations, they didn’t intuit the link between questions and liking. Across four studies, in which participants were engaged in conversations themselves or read transcripts of others’ conversations, people tended not to realize that question asking would influence—or had influenced—the level of amity between the conversationalists.
