Quick check
Guess first, no penalty. AI turned a log of 40 pressure readings into a table with 37 rows. Which check is fast and still reliable?
Compare the table with the log, row by row
A table made from a log is an easy place for AI to slip. Readings get dropped, values get rounded, units get mixed, and a reading can move to the wrong time. A neat table hides all of that.
A worked example
A prompt is the message you type to the AI. This one asks for every reading, unchanged:
Make a table from the readings log pasted below. One row per reading.
Columns: time, gauge, value, unit, note.
Copy each value and unit exactly as logged. Don't round, and don't skip a repeat reading.
At the end, give the number of rows and the number of readings in the log.Your turn
Fill the gaps
Fill each gap in the same prompt.
