Unable to update pip3 even though I try to update it

In summary, it seems I get into a loop where pip thinks I am using an outdated version of pip but when I try to upgrade it does NOT allow me. So I attempt an installation (from this question Jupyter Notebook can't find modules for python 3.6):

(automl) brandomiranda~ ❯ pip3 install ipykernel --upgrade

You are using pip version 10.0.1, however version 19.3.1 is available.
You should consider upgrading via the 'pip install --upgrade pip' command.
Installed kernelspec python3 in /Users/brandomiranda/Library/Jupyter/kernels/python3

ok fine, I will upgrade but then it thinks its already upgraded:

(automl) brandomiranda~ ❯ pip install --upgrade pip
Requirement already up-to-date: pip in ./miniconda3/envs/automl/lib/python3.7/site-packages (19.3.1)

but when I try the installation again it fails with the same message. It seems like a chicken and egg problem. Anyone know what's going on?


Outdated:

I recently did a pip3 list to check what modules/projects I had installed in my virtual environment and I got a suggestion to upgrade pip. I tried but I can't seem to make it update/upgrade. I did:

$ pip3 list
namespaces (4.2.0)
pip (8.0.2)
scikit-learn (0.18.1)
setuptools (19.4)
six (1.10.0)
wheel (0.26.0)
You are using pip version 8.0.2, however version 9.0.1 is available.
You should consider upgrading via the 'pip install --upgrade pip' command.

so I tried doing that and it said it was working:

$ pip install --upgrade pip
Requirement already up-to-date: pip in /Users/user/home_simulation_research/hbf_tensorflow_code/venv/lib/python2.7/site-packages

since it said its alread there I did pip3 list again and it kept saying I didn't actually have it upgraded. Since updating with the standard pip command didn't work I instead tried using pip3 to do the update but it still didn't work:

pip3 install --upgrade pip3
Collecting pip3
  Could not find a version that satisfies the requirement pip3 (from versions: )
No matching distribution found for pip3
You are using pip version 8.0.2, however version 9.0.1 is available.
You should consider upgrading via the 'pip install --upgrade pip' command.

Why doesn't it work?


Just when I thought it didn't work I tried using pip3 to upgrade pip and pip3 to upgrade pip3. For some reason the later doesn't seem to work but the first one does. i.e. doing:

$ pip3 install --upgrade pip

worked (or at least pip3 list) stopped requesting me upgrade. Why is that? Is it just me or is this really strange behaviour?
