I notice that the bottom of my Pycharm IDE shows that there are 2 processes running. When I click on it, a panel opens that says my Python interpreter is updating.
I'm not quite sure what is being updated here: is it Python? conda? Other packages (since there seems to be a few packages e.g. panda, PyQT popping up under the installation bar)?
This leads to my next question: how often will this keep happening, since this updating slows down my Pycharm quite a bit? Also, does it mean that conda packages automatically update? I'd always thought that you have to manually update them in the conda command prompt.

Python interpreters in PyCharmA virtual environment consists of a base interpreter and installed packages. With PyCharm Professional, you can also configure interpreters to execute your Python code on remote environments: SSH, Vagrant, WSL (only for Windows), Docker, and Docker Compose.
To manage the PyCharm update policy, open Settings/Preferences Ctrl+Alt+S and select Appearance & Behavior | System Settings | Updates.
The Python interpreter is a virtual machine, meaning that it is software that emulates a physical computer. This particular virtual machine is a stack machine: it manipulates several stacks to perform its operations (as contrasted with a register machine, which writes to and reads from particular memory locations).
When you change interpreter in pycharm , pycharm first update all of the pre-installed packages. Because time to time many changes comes in packages, Pycharm take care of them.

Pycharm is NOT updating the remote interpreter. See this discussion on the jetbrains feedback site.
In short, the message is badly worded - what's actually happening is downloading remote libraries, which are used for pydoc, method signatures, looking at library code etc...
