A man recently revealed that ChatGPT has helped him find unclaimed money. The CEO of DoNotPay, Joshua Browder, tweeted that ChatGPT, OpenAI's chatbot, assisted in recovering some of his lost and unclaimed money.

The AI chatbot helped Browder receive $210 (about Rs 17,000) from the California government after he asked it to find him some money.

Browder gave the chatbot his name, place of residence and date of birth. He claimed in the tweet, “The first idea it came up with was to visit an obscure government website: the ‘California State Controller.’ This website holds unclaimed refunds from companies that can't contact you. It gave me a link with step-by-step instructions on what to do.”

Browder added that after following all the instructions he was able to get his “unclaimed money of $209.67 a minute later.”

“The only thing stopping the A.I. doing it itself was a captcha. Companies will never build these integrations directly, because it loses them money. Comcast isn't going to let you cancel with a ChatGPT plugin. But we are working to bridge this gap DoNotPay with our own plugin!” Joshua said in the tweet.
