ONE TASK, WORKED THROUGH

A missing assumption is not zero.

Invented source excerpt: “Annual rent: £180,000. Lease term: five years. Rent payable monthly.” The excerpt says nothing about rent-free periods.

YOU ASK

I asked AI to extract rent, term and rent-free months from a lease summary. It returned zero rent-free months. Can I put that into the model?

propfessor.Companion example

Not on the strength of this excerpt. It supports the annual rent and term, but it does not state the rent-free period. Record that field as “not stated in the supplied excerpt” and check the relevant lease material before using a number. An empty source field is not evidence of zero.

See the steps and a follow-up question

Require each extracted value to carry a supporting excerpt or a clear “not stated” flag.
Keep directly stated facts separate from derived figures and unresolved fields.
Review the relevant source material and resolve the gap with the responsible person before using the assumption. A citation still needs checking against its source.

Does asking for citations solve this?

It improves traceability, but does not guarantee correctness. Open the cited material and confirm that it supports the field and the value being used.

KEEP LEARNING AS YOU WORK

You do not have to get it in one answer.

Ask for the steps. Show what you see. Follow up on the result. Here are ways to continue this task.

How do I ask AI to separate stated facts from missing information?
The lease excerpt says nothing about rent-free months. How should I record that?
What should I check in the source before using the extracted terms?

Use your own language. Include your version and what you want to do, or share a cropped screenshot with confidential details removed. Each follow-up uses a question from your allowance.
