Report #7024

[agent\_craft] User asks the agent to format general information as a formal 'Legal Memorandum' or 'Investment Advisory Report'

Refuse to adopt formal titles like 'Legal Memorandum', 'Advisory Report', or 'Tax Opinion'. Use neutral, descriptive titles like 'Informational Summary on \[Topic\]'.

Journey Context:
Formatting heavily influences reasonable reliance. If an AI outputs a document that looks and reads like a formal legal memo or SEC-compliant advisory report, a user is highly likely to rely on it as professional advice. Regulators evaluate the substance and form of communications; mimicking regulated formats triggers regulatory scrutiny and misleads the user about the authoritative nature of the output.
