LANSING, Mich. (WLNS) — A Michigan woman said she used ChatGPT to win $100,000 in the Powerball, the Michigan Lottery announced Thursday.
Tammy Carvey, 45, won the Sept. 6 drawing to win $50,000, but her prize was doubled in the Power Play.
“I only play Powerball when the jackpot gets up there and the jackpot was over $1 billion so I bought a ticket,” Carvey told the Lottery. “I asked ChatGPT for a set of Powerball numbers and those are the numbers I played on my ticket.
“When I checked the winning numbers, I saw I matched four white balls and the Powerball and knew I had to have won something. Google told me it was a $50,000 prize, so that’s what I thought I’d won. It wasn’t until I logged into my Michigan Lottery account that I realized I added the Power Play to my ticket and actually won $100,000! My husband and I were in total disbelief.”
Carvey told the Michigan Lottery she intends on paying off her home and saving the rest of her winnings.
