Summary

Ever trusted an AI-generated stat only to get called out? Jay Schwedelson drops the one prompt that keeps bogus numbers out of your deck:

ㅤ

“Give me stats for ___, but clearly label them as either sourced and 100% accurate or inferred and prioritize real stats with sources that you have verified when possible.”

ㅤ

Then he swaps analytics for dice as he relives a wild Vegas trip where his crew turned pennies into payouts. Short, sharp, and surprisingly useful, this one saves your credibility and maybe your next casino night.

ㅤ

Best Moments:

(01:01) Ben’s meeting nightmare proves blind trust in AI can burn you

(03:00) ChatGPT admits 40-50 percent of its numbers are flat-out wrong

(03:32) Jay shares the exact prompt to separate sourced stats from AI guesses

(08:15) Blackjack drains wallets, but craps turns into a money-making marathon

(09:55) A stranger flips a $100 chip to Jay’s friend after a legendary 25-minute roll
