WIT introduces a benchmark testing whether time-series forecasts change appropriately when future scenarios change. It holds history and domain background fixed, comparing scenario-conditioned forecasts with neutral forecasts in factual, relational, and matched-case evaluations. Experiments report a 14.92 ± 0.64% reduction in GPT-4o’s aggregate forecast error versus its neutral forecasts. But this does not establish sensible responses to alternatives.
