I'm not sure confusing Zucs for Cucs is such a big worry, I'm a botanist and might confuse them in the wrong light
Yea I guess the conclusion they're going for is that younger people don't eat them. A better test would be placing them in front of the foods and having them decide, or even just asking them directly.
I'd also like to see this same study repeated with various generative AIs to see what they say
How the fuck does someone confuse a cucumber for an eggplant (aubergine)?
This was my first reaction, too... I'm surprised as hell that 79% of them are getting it right!
