specifically with the albumentations library, is related to an SSL certificate verification failure when the library tries to check for version updates. This is a common issue that can occur due to network configurations, missing certificates, or outdated SSL settings. Here's how you can resolve it:
Possible Causes
Missing or Misconfigured SSL Certificates: Your system may not have the necessary SSL certificates to verify the server.

Network Restrictions: If you're behind a proxy or firewall, it might block or interfere with SSL verification.

Outdated Python or Libraries: An older version of Python or related libraries (e.g., urllib) might not support modern SSL protocols.

Custom SSL Configuration: Your environment might have custom SSL settings that are causing the issue.
