This is now the "safe" python version to use

See Heliophysics-Software-Search-Interface@81069c6 for considerations on how to upgrade the libraries (thanks to @Technostalgic)

I will note that I was unable to upgrade sci-kit learn to 1.5 due to the model weights from sklearn 1.3.2 (or whichever version the model was trained in) being incompatible with the version 1.5, which is why our fork is still using sklearn 1.4.2 instead of the newest.

If we want to upgrade sklearn to 1.5 for this dependency upgrade, I believe the model will need to be retrained in that version? (I'm not 100% on how the ML stuff works)

Scikit learn is a tricky library, as you need to retrain the models if you upgrade it. In somef there are some category classification models from https://github.com/SoftwareUnderstanding/rolf and models that aim to classify if a text excerpt is a description.

Usually retraining the models is not difficult to do. I think we will push the next version and then upgrade all models at least updating the latest scikit learn library available in 3.12.
