Instructions

We are building a virtual assistant that can help you control all your devices, social accounts, etc. Our virtual assistant can do a lot of things now but it still has a hard time to understand the users since different users may say the same thing very differently. So we need you to help us teach the assistant.

In the following, you will see 4 different scenarios. In each scenario, you will see the command that was previously issued, how the assistant replied, and what you like to do next (in the form of a follow-up command). You will be asked to paraphrase the follow-up command in 2 different ways without changing its meaning, which means

Warning: for the last two requirements, we have a script to verify and if you failed to meet them, the script will reject your answer

Note that since all commands are generated by a computer, they sometimes may be unnatural and clunky. Your goal is to make the paraphrase as close as possible to the command you would use when interacting with the assistant. Try to make your paraphrases natural, for example:

Try your best to make the 2 paraphrases as different as possible. If you really don't know how to paraphrase the command, if the context is not understandable, or if the follow-up is not meaningful in the given context, please write the exact words no idea.

Example 1
