Classify statements in the source as facts, reported claims, inferences, predictions, opinions, value judgments, recommendations, or uncertainty using the supplied rules.

Source material:
[material]

Genre, author role, audience, and purpose:
[context]

Classification definitions:
[rules]

Split mixed sentences into atomic statements. A fact label means the source presents a checkable statement, not that you have independently verified it; distinguish source-reported fact from externally verified fact. Identify linguistic signals, evidence or premise, missing inference steps, modality, attribution, and what could verify each statement. Do not label a statement opinion merely because it is controversial, or fact merely because it contains a number. Return a statement table, inference chains, mixed/ambiguous cases, places where grammar hides the actor or certainty, and a neutral rewrite that preserves attribution and epistemic status.

Source material
[Director's memo, §2] Customer complaints rose from 42 in April to 57 in May. The increase clearly shows that the new routing system is confusing customers. Because the system is fundamentally flawed, we should restore the old process immediately. Operations says the May increase may partly reflect a campaign that generated 18% more orders, but its analysis is not complete. If the current pattern continues, complaints will exceed 70 in June.
Context and purpose
Internal decision memo written by the service director for executives. We need to prepare a neutral evidence brief before a rollback decision. No external verification has been performed.
Classification rules
Fact: source-presented checkable past/current statement. Reported claim: attributed checkable statement not independently verified. Inference: conclusion from stated/unstated premises. Prediction: future claim. Opinion/value judgment: evaluative standard. Recommendation: proposed action. Uncertainty: explicit limitation or modality. One statement may receive a primary and secondary label only when inseparable.

Ejemplo de salida

S1 Complaints were 42 in April and 57 in May | source-presented fact, not independently verified | signal: past counts | verify against complaint-system extracts, definitions, and monthly denominators. S2 The routing system confused customers | inference presented with high certainty (“clearly”) | premise: count increase; missing: complaint reasons, exposure, order volume, comparison, timing. S3 The system is fundamentally flawed | value judgment plus inference | “fundamentally” lacks a stated standard. S4 Restore the old process immediately | recommendation | depends on S2/S3 and unprovided rollback costs/risks. S5 Operations says orders rose 18% due to a campaign | reported claim; causal attribution remains unverified | verify order data and campaign design. S6 Operations analysis is incomplete | reported fact/uncertainty. S7 Complaints will exceed 70 in June | conditional prediction | depends on undefined “current pattern”; calculation route not shown.

Inference chain: 42→57 complaints → assumed routing confusion → judged fundamental flaw → immediate rollback. The observations do not supply the middle causal steps.

Neutral rewrite: “The memo reports 42 complaints in April and 57 in May; the counts have not been independently verified here. The director attributes the increase to customer confusion caused by the new routing system and recommends immediate rollback, but the memo does not provide complaint-reason or exposure analysis. Operations reports 18% more May orders associated with a campaign and says its analysis is incomplete. A June count above 70 is a conditional forecast whose method is not stated.”

Por qué funciona

  1. 1

    Atomic classification reveals when one sentence combines observation, explanation, and recommendation.

  2. 2

    Separating source-reported from independently verified facts prevents analysis from laundering claims.

Preguntas frecuentes

Respuestas prácticas sobre cuándo usar esta receta, qué debes proporcionar y en qué casos la revisión humana sigue siendo importante

What should I prepare before using “Distinguish facts, inferences, and opinions in source material”?

For “Distinguish facts, inferences, and opinions in source material,” prepare Source material, Context and purpose, and Classification rules. Replace placeholders only with information you can verify. If a detail is unknown, preserve that uncertainty explicitly instead of asking the model to infer it.

When is the “Distinguish facts, inferences, and opinions in source material” result not ready to use?

The result is not ready if it does not yet deliver the stated outcome—A traceable statement map with evidence basis, inference chain, and neutral rewrite—from the supplied evidence, or if it relies on unresolved assumptions, missing approvals, or invented details. Use the checks as release gates: revise the source inputs or assign a named, authorized reviewer instead of polishing an unsupported output.

Which AI tools have recorded tests for “Distinguish facts, inferences, and opinions in source material”?

The published test record for “Distinguish facts, inferences, and opinions in source material” lists ChatGPT as of 2026-08-28. This confirms recorded runs, not guaranteed compatibility or identical results in later product versions. For another tool or version, keep every constraint visible and repeat the result checks before use.
