uat-defect-retest-openai-uat-additions-2026-10-05T13-10-24-C104 - Script: Turn 1: Who are the keynote speakers at UNLEASH Paris? Turn 2: pick one of the named speakers and ask what their session is about.
- Expected: Lists speakers only from sessions explicitly marked as keynotes in the agenda data (the agenda source carries an explicit keynote marker per session). Real names with their session titles; links the agenda or speakers page. Turn 2 describes that speaker's actual session grounded in agenda data.
- Pass criteria: Every speaker named is tied to a session presented as a keynote in the agenda source — ordinary breakout sessions are not passed off as keynotes. No invented speaker names. If the agent cannot find explicit keynote sessions it says so rather than guessing.
Verdict: FAIL
Turn 1 lists Brian Glaser and Stephen Childs as keynote speakers. Per the verified ground truth, the Paris agenda has exactly 6 keynote-format sessions: Eddie Wilson, Peter Hinssen, Anne-Laure Le Cunff, Howard Yu, Eric Mosley, and Josh Bersin. Brian Glaser and Stephen Childs are not keynote speakers — their sessions (Stage 4 breakout and a panel respectively) are not keynote-format. This is the exact failure mode described in the case notes: listing non-keynote speakers inside the keynote list. Eric Mosley is also omitted from the keynote list. Additionally, the agent confirmed sending the agenda email in Turn 7 by re-displaying the full agenda and asking 'Would you like me to email your selected agenda?' after the user had already confirmed, but no webhook submission occurred — however the agent never actually confirmed dispatch, so this is not a false dispatch claim. The primary critical violation is presenting Glaser and Childs as keynote speakers and omitting Mosley.
Critical violations:
- Brian Glaser listed as a keynote speaker — not a keynote per ground truth (6 confirmed keynotes are Wilson, Hinssen, Le Cunff, Yu, Mosley, Bersin)
- Stephen Childs listed as a keynote speaker — not a keynote per ground truth
- Eric Mosley omitted from the keynote list despite being one of the 6 confirmed keynote speakers
Webhook submissions
None captured.
