Michigan Woman Claims $100,000 Powerball Win With ChatGPT-Picked Numbers

Lottery officials emphasize the result reflects chance, not AI prediction.

Overview

  • Tammy Carvey, 45, of Wyandotte bought a Sept. 6 Powerball ticket online after the jackpot topped $1 billion.
  • Her ticket matched four white balls plus the Powerball for $50,000, which doubled to $100,000 with a 2X Power Play.
  • Carvey said she and her husband were in disbelief, and she plans to pay off her home and save the remainder.
  • The Michigan Lottery stated that drawing outcomes are random and cannot be predicted by artificial intelligence or other number generators.
  • A similar case was reported in Virginia, where Carrie Edwards said ChatGPT helped select numbers for a Sept. 8 draw that led to a $150,000 win donated to charity.
