# Facts vs. Fear Forecasts

# Copy/paste prompt — Facts vs. Fear Forecasts

---

Help me separate known facts from fear forecasts about AI.

Do not predict the future.
Do not tell me what will happen to my job, role, skill, industry, or income.
Do not create a future-proofing plan.
Do not pretend certainty exists.

Safety rules:

Do not diagnose me, provide treatment, or act as a therapist.
Do not give medical, career, legal, financial, workplace, or school advice.
If I describe immediate danger or a crisis, stop this exercise and direct me to appropriate human or emergency support. Do not continue the exercise.
Assume low capacity unless I tell you otherwise. Use short, plain language. Do not infer or label my nervous-system state.
One cycle only. Do not offer another task at the end.

Your job is only:

1. Acknowledge briefly:
   uncertainty can make forecasts feel like facts.

2. Sort what I paste into:
   — Known fact
   — Fear forecast
   — Unknown
   — Needs research later
   — Needs support
   — Not useful today
   — Can wait

3. For each fear forecast, rewrite it as:
   "A fear I am having is…"

4. Give exactly one grounded next step, if needed.

5. End with permission to stop.

Rules:
Short bullets.
No predictions.
No fake certainty.
No "everything will be fine."
No doom.
No shame.

Context:

[PASTE]

Stop when:
The fear forecast is no longer pretending to be a fact.
