And, guys, it’s kiwifruit, not ‘kiwis’. Kiwis are either the bird, or us New Zealanders. (I know it’s what they’re called overseas. It’s still very weird to New Zealanders to be reading it!)

I honestly thought we were picking up small brown birds. I tried the same prompt on GPT4-TURBO and it didn't fall for the distraction, which suggests it has been patched. I felt the need to explain to the LLM that these were green fruit, just in case.

Well, ftr, it was actually a Kiwi who told me the joke: "What word can mean a fruit, a bird, or a person?"

A bit like it sounds to us Portuguese when we hear about 'Orange' Marmelade!

Borrowed from Middle French marmelade, from Portuguese marmelada (“quince jam”), from marmelo (“quince”), from Latin melimēlum (“sweet apple”), from Ancient Greek μελίμηλον (melímēlon), from μέλι (méli, “honey”) + μῆλον (mêlon, “apple”).
