Verify an AI answer
Separate facts, calculations and unsupported claims.
What you will be able to do
- Use source references and independent arithmetic to check a claim.
Suggested preparation: Understand what AI can and cannot do ·
Try the task
- A source says 3 of 12 invoices were late. “Three invoices were late” is supported. “The employee committed fraud” is not supported by that fact alone.
- Use fictional or permitted inputs. Identify missing information before asking AI to help.
- Attempt the task yourself, then use the prompt to compare methods. Keep the source with your working.
- Check the result against the worked answer and complete the checkpoint. Correct an error before saving completion.
Try this prompt
List each claim in [draft], its supporting source passage, the calculation if any, and what remains unverified. Do not invent a source.
