Converting from a string to boolean in Python?

Does anyone know how to do convert from a string to a boolean in Python? I found this link. But it doesn’t look like a proper way to do it. I.e. using built-in functionality, etc.

The reason I’m asking this is because I learned about int("string") from here. But when trying bool("string") it always returns True:

>>> bool("False")
True

34 s
34
