Confirmed Tatkal ticket booked in a flash on IRCTC; AI handled the entire process automatically, leaving users amazed..
Booking a Tatkal ticket on IRCTC is considered quite difficult. Most users frequently complain on social media about their inability to book Tatkal tickets because they sell out almost instantly. However, Artificial Intelligence (AI) has now accomplished this feat. A user has claimed to have booked a Tatkal ticket on IRCTC with the help of AI—specifically, ChatGPT 6 Astra. The user also created and shared a video demonstrating this achievement.
Before proceeding, it is worth noting that Tatkal ticket booking opens at 10:00 AM for AC classes and 11:00 AM for Sleeper class. In the video, the user demonstrated how, when the IRCTC website was struggling due to heavy traffic, the AI model paused, refreshed the page, and successfully booked a confirmed Tatkal ticket. As proof, the user shared screenshots of the interaction with the AI bot and the confirmed ticket itself.
**ChatGPT 6 Astra Books a Tatkal Ticket**
The user had previously posted a video showing AI booking a train ticket. At the time, many jokingly remarked that booking a Tatkal ticket was beyond even ChatGPT 6 Astra's capabilities. However, it has now been proven that it can successfully book Tatkal tickets. Many people fail to book Tatkal tickets on the IRCTC website because they take too long to enter details, solve the CAPTCHA, or complete the payment. Additionally, the site's server often fails to respond properly due to heavy traffic.
To tackle this challenge, a user employed OpenAI's most powerful and advanced model, ChatGPT 6 Astra. It is worth noting that the company launched this model earlier this month. The AI model completed this seemingly impossible task rapidly and without any human assistance; even the person who tasked it with the job was amazed by its speed. Comprehensive instructions had been provided in advance. The user had already given ChatGPT 6 Astra highly detailed instructions, clearly specifying the actions to take if the website crashed, the payment stalled, or any other issue arose during the ticket booking process. To execute these instructions, the AI agent automatically sprang into action at 10:59:50 AM. It opened the IRCTC website without any manual assistance and rapidly entered details such as the travel date, stations, train information, and the 'Tatkal' quota. However, the website did experience downtime during the process.
When the IRCTC website suddenly went down, the AI cleverly waited for exactly 10 seconds. As soon as the server came back online, it refreshed the page and immediately entered the passenger details into the form. To ensure super-fast payment processing, the user had pre-loaded funds into their IRCTC Wallet. Without wasting a moment, the AI selected the wallet option and completed the transaction in the blink of an eye. While this sounds impressive, IRCTC might restrict such AI agents from accessing the website in the future to prevent misuse.
