I was wrong about tidymodels and LLMs

One of my most visceral memories of my first interactions with LLMs was asking that first release of ChatGPT in late 2022 to write code to fit a linear regression with tidymodels. The model hallucinated a function tidymodels::install_tidymodels() again and again. That function does not exist. If it did, there’d be some serious chicken and egg happening. This thing was goofy.
