I have a very frustrating error that I cannot explain.

I am getting the Following error. I don’t know what this means and i couldn’t figure anything else out
I have also mentioned the MainActivity.kt code and Build.Gradle and activity_main.xml code as well.
If you can please also explain what this is and what i can make sure of to avoid this in future
