With Help From Artificial Intelligence, Tammy Carvey Turned a Simple Request to ChatGPT Into an Unexpected Victory. The Bet Generated by the AI Hit the Lottery Numbers, Giving Her a Prize of US$ 100 Thousand That Will Change Her Life
A Michigan resident turned a simple request to an artificial intelligence into an unexpected victory. Tammy Carvey, 45, used ChatGPT to choose the numbers for Powerball and won a prize of US$ 100,000.
The Bet With Help From Technology
Carvey decided to participate in the online drawing in September when the jackpot exceeded US$ 1 billion. “I only play Powerball when the jackpot gets there, and the prize was more than US$ 1 billion, so I bought a ticket,” she stated. To choose the numbers, she turned to ChatGPT: “I asked ChatGPT for a set of Powerball numbers, and these were the numbers I played on my ticket.”
The bet paid off. The ticket matched four white balls and the Powerball in the drawing on September 6, which guaranteed Carvey an initial prize of US$ 50,000. Thanks to the Power Play option, the amount doubled to US$ 100,000.

Surprise When Discovering the Total Amount
When checking the results, Carvey realized she had won, but she didn’t imagine the size of the prize. “Google told me it was a prize of US$ 50,000, so that’s what I thought I had won.
Only when I logged into my Michigan Lottery account did I realize I had added Power Play to my ticket and actually won US$ 100,000! My husband and I were totally in disbelief,” she shared.
With the money, Carvey plans to pay off her home and increase her savings. The unexpected victory shows how even a bet guided by artificial intelligence can change someone’s life.
