There is so much wisdom in the old saying you can lead a horse to water but you can't make them drink.

Humans are just such stubborn creatures.

chatGPT3.5 hallucinated packages. chatGPT4 has found me about 10 awesome python packages I didn't even know existed.

Personally, I don't really care if anyone drinks or not. I am super hydrated and if people want to stay dehydrated they are just going to get smoked.

Why assume everyone is dehydrated? Here's another ol' saying: in the middle of the desert, toilet water tastes like Fiji.

Are these packages somehow not findable on github/pypy/search engines?
