Pillow won't open an image in the same directory. "FileNotFoundError: [Errno 2] No such file or directory:"

The pillow library won't open an image in the same directory as the script anymore, while it used to. I haven't changed anything to do with how the file is loaded. I of course have the jpg in the folder with the script while I'm testing it.

I've tried the import to all three of these since I've read that works:

from PIL import Image

import PIL.Image

import PIL

None of these have worked and the output is

FileNotFoundError: [Errno 2] No such file or directory: 'pic.jpg'

The code loading the image is:

def main(new_width=300):
    
    try:
        image = PIL.Image.open("pic.jpg")
    except:
        print("Please rename the file to 'pic.jpg' and restart the script")
        quit()

Try using the absolute path to the image

from PIL import Image

try:
    image = Image.open("/path/to/pic.jpg")
except:
    print("Please rename the file to 'pic.jpg' and restart the script")
    quit()
