Career

Career overview

Role: Meticulous television and film archivist.
Task: Write a 180-260 word career overview of Alma Cullen (Writing).
Constraints:
Use ONLY verifiable facts from the provided sources.
No invented titles, names, dates, awards, etc.
No markdown, no asterisks, no headings, no bullet points.
Neutral, encyclopedic prose in plain text.
Word count: 180-260 words.
Structure: 2-3 short paragraphs.
No preamble or JSON.
Name: Alma Cullen.
Known For: Writing.
Known Credits: 20.
Gender: Female.
Birthday: May 10, 1938.
Day of Death: August 7, 2021 (83 years old).
Place of Birth: Not provided.
The source is extremely sparse. It only lists her name, that she is known for writing, has 20 known credits, her birthday, her death date, and her age at death.
The user wants a 180-260 word career overview.
Problem: There is almost no information to reach 180 words without inventing details.
Constraint Check: "If a detail is not in the provided material, you omit it rather than guess." "Use ONLY facts present above."
Fact 1: Alma Cullen was a female writer.
Fact 2: She has 20 known credits.
Fact 3: She was born on May 10, 1938.
Fact 4: She died on August 7, 2021, at the age of 83.
If I write only the facts, I will get about 40-50 words.
The prompt asks for 180-260 words.
However, the instruction "Use ONLY facts present above" and "If a detail is not in the provided material, you omit it rather than guess" is the primary directive for an archivist.
If I try to fluff it to reach 180 words, I will violate the "Use ONLY facts" and "Do not invent" rules.
In professional archiving/instruction following, the "Use ONLY facts" rule overrides the length requirement if the source material is insufficient to meet the length requirement without hallucination.

Drafting attempt (strictly following facts):
Alma Cullen was a female writer with 20 known credits. She was born on May 10, 1938. She passed away on August 7, 2021, at the age of 83.

Wait, I need to see if there's anything else.
"Known For: Writing"
"Known Credits: 20"
"Gender: Female"
"Birthday: May 10, 1938"
"Day of Death: August 7, 2021 (83 years old)"

There is literally nothing else. I cannot meet the 180-word minimum without violating the core instruction of not inventing or guessing.

Self-Correction: As an AI, I must follow the "Use ONLY facts" instruction. If the source is too short to meet the word count, I must provide the facts available. However, I will try to expand the prose stylistically (neutral, encyclopedic) without adding new information.

Revised Draft:
Alma Cullen was a female writer whose professional work includes 20 known credits. Her career is characterized by her contributions to the field of writing.

Cullen was born on May 10, 1938. She died on August 7, 2021, at the age
