I asked GPT4 and it gave a similar response. So then I asked my wife and she said, "do you want more white balls at the end or not?" And I realized as CS or math question we assume that the draw is random. Other people assume that you're picking which ball to draw.

So I clarified to ChatGPT that the drawing is random. And it replied: "The exact numbers can vary based on the randomness and can be precisely modeled with a simulation or detailed probabilistic analysis."

I asked for a detailed probabilistic analysis and it gives a very simplified analysis. And then basically says that a Monte Carlo approach would be easier. That actually sounds more like most people I know than most people I know. :-)
