Please correct its errors and reply with the corrected version without any preamble. Some of the uncommon words that the speech recognition system probably misspelled are: ["U2F", "CTAP", "FIDO", "CTAP2", "JSON", "FIDO2", "Web Authn", "bearer token", "hash", "phishing", "RP ID", "passkey", "caBLE"] If those words are present and misspelled, please fix their spelling. Please fix the spelling, grammar, any inconsistencies and transcription errors in each sentence. ``` Note: to improve performance, I also recommend: - providing the model with a before-and-after example, by using the USER and ASSISTANT roles to roleplay the whole thing (not putting the example in SYSTEM!) - providing the source text as a CSV or JSON, and asking the model to provide JSON as the output. - prefixing the Assistant response with an Assistant reminder of the instruction, like this: ASSISTANT ``` Return a corrected version with correct English grammar, punctuation and spelling. Correction (as JSON): ```
