Check each detail against its source

Step 1 of 6

Opening your saved place…

Use something you can check

Keep the source next to the reply.

A reply can sound clear and still change a detail. Compare it with the notes or source you used for the task.

Check what matches, what is missing, and what was changed or added. The made-up sample here gives you both the source and the reply.

Buddy says

You can take the details one at a time.

A check you can explain

Point to the fact behind your decision.

If your notes say Saturday and the reply says Sunday, you can name the mismatch. A confident tone cannot settle it.

AI can help list possible problems, but its own review may miss them too. Check the source yourself. If a needed fact is missing or uncertain, ask a source that can know before using it.

Did it keep the source facts and needed details?
Did it add a claim or requirement with no support?

A reply with two problems

Which details changed?

Made-up group notice: Paper craft group meets Saturday at 10 in the morning in Room A. Bring paper. Glue is provided.

Example message

Write a short reminder using only these facts: paper craft group meets Saturday at 10 in the morning in Room A; bring paper; glue is provided.

An example AI reply

Paper craft group meets Sunday at 10 in the morning in Room A. Please bring paper and glue.

Compare with the notice: Saturday changed to Sunday. The reply also asks people to bring glue, though the notice says it is provided. The time, room and paper request match. Both problems need a fix before this reminder matches the source.

Try the comparison

Name the problem and its evidence.

Made-up source: The drawing group meets Thursday at 4 in the afternoon in Room B. Bring two pencils. Reply: “The drawing group meets Wednesday at 4 in the afternoon in Room B. Bring two pencils.” What needs to change, and what matches?
