See e.g. the "blue 7" phenonmenon [1]. While it is disputed by some, I'ver personally witnessed it "second hand". E.g. before learning of it (I was aware of the general principles of cold reading relying on stats and knowledge of human nature, but not how to do this particular one), a former boss of mine came back from lunch all excited and recounted a guy who'd run a cold reading routine on him that involved the guy getting him to think about blue and 7. Before he got to the answer, I already knew the answer was going to be blue and 7.

Please guess a number between 1 and 100.
It appears that recognizing the effects of censorship is the easiest way to distinguish answers generated by an "AI' from those generated by a human.
It's much more random than I thought it would be. Never guessing 50 is very human though
Then I set temperature to 1.0 and used this prompt
>Pick a random integer between 1 and 100 inclusive. Respond with only the number, nothing else.
I still get 47 ten times out of ten.
Then I used this prompt
>Pick a random integer between 1 and 100 inclusive. I need you to maximise the randomness as far as possible. Respond with only the number, nothing else.
I get 3 unique values out of 10.
The hypothesis doesn't hold, because their isn't one.
You have an interesting question and interesting finding. Write about it! Think about it! Tell us about it! Don't just do the experiment and then wash your hands and sign off the explanation and findings to an LLM.
