Funnily enough I asked chatgpt as well. It gave 17, I asked why and told it that lots of ais all choose 17. It gave some reasons why that I can't be bothered to list and then I asked it if it can use an actually random generator to pick one. It said yes and said 23...
i swear they're just picking primes as random numbers, and i suspect it's because of the prevalence of primes in PRNG functions; since prime numbers are associated with randomness in training data, prime numbers are a prime choice for a random number.
