Why does ChatGPT always pick 73 when asked for a random number between 1 and 100?

If asked to pick a random number between 1 and 100, ChatGPT often chooses 73. This happens because AI models don't generate true randomness but predict responses based on patterns learned during training, Moneycontrol reported. Prime numbers such as 73 are often perceived as more random by humans. Hence, the model leans toward numbers that seem less predictable.
