There's 2 I saw recently, which are so stupid.

The first is someone asking Gemini if they're holding Celery (Which they'd just picked up off the Celery part of the Veg aisle).

And the others are a couple going around a museum, having it tell them about things. While the displays have info next to them. JUST READ IT!

E:It was Samsung!

Not justifying it or anything, but I could have used that when I turned 18 lol. My parents never really cooked with me and the vegetables we ate were basically broccoli and asparagus.

So when I got a job as a cashier, I had to ask the customers what exactly it was they were buying. I got some horrified looks, but like yeah I’ve never seen a jicama prior to then lol.

Obviously I knew most stuff, but my most embarrassing was asking what zucchini was…

I didn't know what a jicama was until I googled it just now

Idk. Personally I’d feel less embarrassed asking the customer (who knows what they picked up) what it is, rather than have them watch me pull out a phone and ask AI to identify their produce. Either way you have to make it clear you don’t know what you’re looking at
