esptool is too old. Update it via pip to 3.2 or later.
Don't use -chip auto always specify --chip esp32s3 and you would have seeing error saying no esp32s3 found.

Thanks, everything is OK now. The firmware has been loaded.
But when Thonny connects, a message is displayed, and the micropython does not start:

Device is busy or does not respond. Your options:

  - wait until it completes current work;
  - use Ctrl+C to interrupt current work;
  - use Stop/Restart to interrupt more and enter REPL.
