Legal Question in Civil Litigation in Georgia

jury trial in a civil complaint

I filed a pro se civil tort and did not specifically request a jury trial. Do I need to amend the complaint and ask for a jury trial or simply set a trial date with the judge, after they answer, and it will be a jury trial?
