Had me wonder - if you ask an LLM for a random number 1...100, what distribution do you get? Surely many have run this experiment. Here's a link that looks like a good example, https://sanand0.github.io/llmrandom/

I imagine you'd get a similar distribution as when asking humans to come up with a random number on the spot

That is interesting data. Just from looking at those graphs, it looks like AIs are consistently avoidant of the number 69, likely because of safeguards to prevent it from being offensive. Otherwise its training would probably tell it that it was a really nice number.

I wonder the human results. If a friend asks you, maybe you say 69, but if it's a psych exam, people might avoid it.
