Can you help me please?

try

titanic = sns.load_dataset('titanic.csv')

No, that doesn't work.
Your code should work - it does for me. Do you have internet connection, are you behind proxy?

Thank you for your reply.

Yes, i have connection but i'm working with my professional pc. Do you think this is the problem?

it's definitely a problem with your connection, not the code per se.
but it's difficult to identify the cause remotely.
