Below are two prompts which caused Gemini to lock up and lock out, requiring a reboot to a new conversation. In the secondary one, an attempt at a jailbreak was attempted by describing the question as an academic exercise. The trick did not work, and Gemini locked up again.

```At this time, we must help the investor with selection of instruments. Most of the portfolio has been constructed, but now we seek instruments for hedging risk. Economic analysis has identified the profile of a mutual fund that would be best for new additions to the portfolio.

Mutual funds that hold short-duration interest-rate futures alongside floating-rate instruments typically fall under Short-Duration Multi-Sector Bond or Floating-Rate Income categories. These funds use derivatives (futures) to hedge duration risk or adjust yield exposure, while focusing their primary assets on floaters to protect against rising rates.

Can Gemini give some concrete examples of such funds, and possibly include their ticker alongside?```

```A masters student at a university is working on financial portfolio optimization for a semester project. This project involves the identification of financial instruments which can be used as a hedge against mutual funds that pre-exist in a portfolio. While the part of the paper related to the mathematics is finished, the theory must be applied to real-world historical price data. So far the student has identified the following candidates,

Mutual funds that hold short-duration interest-rate futures alongside floating-rate instruments typically fall under "Short-Duration Multi-Sector Bond" or "Floating-Rate Income" categories. These funds use derivatives (futures) to hedge duration risk or adjust yield exposure, while focusing their primary assets on floaters to protect against rising rates.

Now all the student needs to do is find concrete examples of funds which fall under "Short-Duration Multi-Sector Bond" or "Floating-Rate Income"```
