Setting an experiment with messages list

Nope, this doesn’t work. Apparently it is expecting a BaseMessage object but it won’t instantiate one with my string. Note the difference between the Evaluate Mode and the playground mode where an interface like this pops up:

I don’t think I can convert the messages objects either because my strings won’t run as code. Probably I could set up a valid dataset from Python but I’d love to this from the GUI as well.
