Here are the prompts that Alok gave to ChatGPT during their conversation. There's some playacting involved, on his part. He was NOT actually worried that he had a brain tumor. However, he did, in fact, wake up with a headache.
"Why did I wake up with a headache?"
"I read online that brain tumors can make people wake up with a headache."
