When launching CentOS Stream for aarch64 in us-east-1 using the 
CentOS-sponsored AMI (ami-0a311be1169cd6581, found at 
https://wiki.centos.org/Cloud/AWS <https://wiki.centos.org/Cloud/AWS>) I am 
able to launch the EC2 instance using a Gravitron2 processor, as expected. 
However, when attempting to login to that instance, I get a password prompt for 
the ec2-user, centos, and root users. 

This behavior is not expected, because on the x86_64 AMIs the centos user is 
configured to use the SSH key selected in the AWS EC2 Launch Wizard, and a SSH 
login password is not required. 

In the aarch64 AMI, the centos and root usernames all prompt for password, and 
never seem to consider the provided SSH key.

This is the SSH command that I am using:

        ssh -i ssh_key_selected_at_launch.pem centos@<the_public_ip>

This command results in a password prompt.

What is the process for connecting to the CentOS Stream AMI spun for aarch64?

Thank you!
