Welcome, AI enthusiasts.

Ever asked your frie​nd to pick a number between 1 and 100, on​ly to hear "7" for the millionth time? Well, guess what? Our AI pals are just as predictable – and it's hilarious!

Scientists have discovered that AI chatbots, those digital know-it-alls we love to chat with, have their favorite numbers. It's like they're picking lottery tickets but with a very lim​ited imagination!

Here's the scoop: Each AI has its go-to digit when asked to choose a random number. GPT-3.5 Turbo is all about 47 (maybe it's a big fan of Agent 47?), while Claude 3 Haiku swears by 42 (clearly a "Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy" fan). And Gemini? It's team 72 all the way!

But it gets better. These AIs are also avoiding numbers like they're hot lava. Low numbers? Nope. High numbers? No way. Anything ending in 0 or 5? Not on their watch! It's like they're trying to be "random" by following a very specific set of rules – sound familiar, humans?

Here's the truth: The AIs are just really good copycats. These models don't understand randomness. They're just mimicking the patterns they've seen in their training data.

So, what does this mean for us mere mortals? Well, it's a reminder that while AI can do some pretty ama​zing things, it's still just imitating human behavior – quirks, biases, etc. It's like having a super-smart parrot that can do your taxes but still thinks 47 is the answer to everything.

Next time you're chatting with an AI, why not ask it to pick a number? You might just discover its secret crush on a digit. And hey, who knows? Maybe 47 really is the meaning of li​fe, the universe, and everything... plus five.

Stay curious (and maybe ethink your lottery number strategy),
