Elisa Pallotta Three and students of the Department of Mathematics and Physics of the University of Salento they would have studied, thanks to Artificial Intelligence, a way to win at the game of Lot. And they succeeded, twice, with the help of ChatGPT.
Three University Students Win Lotto Thanks to ChatGPT
Although there is no scientific method, not even with the help of Artificial Intelligence, to win the lottery, these students studied a mathematical model which actually led them to victory.
“The three,” says the tobacconist from Salento to whom they turned, “came to me a little less than a month ago to ask me for information on the late numbers. They wanted to know if, in my experience, it is productive to play by studying numbers that have not been drawn for a long time”. Here is the advice of the tobacconist from Salento. “I explained to them that I think it is more productive to play the numbers that are drawn most frequently on a wheel, rather than getting lost chasing a number endlessly. So they applied this suggestion and studied a mathematical model.”
The algorithm developed by the three students
“We have” they explain three students, who prefer to remain anonymous "developed in his spare time a algorithm based on techniques of machine learning algorithm . The principle was simple: we fed the model with historical data from Lotto draws over the last two years, trying to identify recurring patterns and statistical correlations between numbers and wheels. Once trained, the algorithm gave us predictions about which numbers were most likely to come out in the next draw”. “Of course”, they specified, “as mathematicians we know well that the Lotto is a purely random system, and that no model can guarantee certain predictions. However, we were curious to see if, using advanced statistical analysis and artificial intelligence techniques, it was possible to identify some useful trends".
