With technological advancements, a gambler can now enjoy his favorite casino game from the comfort of his home and even on the go. Convenience, accessibility, and expanding selection of online gambling platforms are sure to entice more players in the coming years. What do you think will be the subsequent big adoption in the Gambling industry in the future?

According to my understanding, there are two important innovations that will be adopted by the Gambling industry.

VR/AR Casinos:

Apple is in the process of launching its own VR/AR headset. After the release, I reckon that  Virtual Reality casinos will get a boost and will revolutionize the way we experience the thrill of the game. Imagine being transported to a virtual casino floor. With realistic sights and sounds, and interacting with other players from around the world.  I am assuming that VR technology is poised to create an immersive gambling experience like never before.

AI:

AI is gaining a lot of momentum in different business sectors. Considering its ability I guess casinos can use AI to monitor, analyze betting patterns, detect fraud, and prevent multiple security issues from AI bots. I do feel this technology might have been already implemented by gambling platforms. If a user can easily create bots to generate profits then casinos can also do the same for security purposes.


What do you guys think?

I feel like both will be adopted by online casinos to certain measures. I believe that VR headsets are still too big and heavy. I don't think they will be viable option unless certain revolutions happen with VR technology. Noone would like headaches. I think AI on the other hand, will be used by all casinos for many different operations. Fraud detection is one simple thing. Think deep. AI can be used to manipulate rewarding systems of games. Casinos can feel lot more optimal for both end users and operators.

I can only mention metaverse will be an exciting tech to be adopted by the gambling industry and why?

This article will explain a lot.

https://www.techopedia.com/cryptocurrency/best-metaverse-casinos

People can play virtually through metaverse against others. It will be so funny to play poker in the metaverse. I think that metaverse is having huge potential to be adopted by gambling industry.

I do like VR/AR casinos but it's not all people will access them easily. It's not all people can afford to buy VR/AR headset.

I don't think that right now we are missing anything while slot machines make the most of revenue for the casinos.Since they are the most played game in every casino I think the casinos if they would want to implement a new technology should implement the VR/AR which would give the gamblers an even more immerse diving into the world of slots.Imagine for example when the cut scenes that some slot games have when you get their bonus round were real and you see angels or daemons with magic wands that near you that it feels surreal,I personally would love such experience from the slot machines and I am sure the time will not be far when we have this implemented.

VR is definitely the next if devices like Occulus etc. become more accessible to mainstream users/gamers. I am still impressed with live games from Evolution, Pragmatic, etc. Can you imagine playing Crazy Time or Sweet Bonanza Candyland in a VR environment? It definitely will challenge land-based casinos. For card games, however, I think it's still better to go to the local casino as not many improvements can be made.

For metaverse, things like Meta with cartoon environment are a big no for me. It's kind of like the child's playground. But maybe after the 3d becomes much more realistic, it will be an option.

it will be a battle of AIs. i'm sure the casinos will be using AI yet also the gamblers will be looking for ways to win and AI will be the first choice also. people had been using bots just solving captcha back in the days trying to earn cents per view.  playing on casino will be no different.

Any technology that will enable online casinos to offer a more attractive service and that will enable them to fight against fraudsters will certainly be implemented. It is a business in which huge money is made and they are always ready to invest in something new, and it is no secret that those who enable something new have the chance to attract the most new players and retain those who are already their users.

In addition, during the pandemic, online casinos received a large number of new players who discovered some of their advantages compared to physical casinos, and I think that some new technologies will attract even more players of the new digital generation.

There wouldn't be an online casino if it weren't because of technology. Everything is adopted by businesses actually, the dotcom bubble was made possible by technology.

Right now AIs are most likely be abused in the end but blockchain technology will also be used widely. AIs today was believed to be released  to divert attention to AIs while the real adoption is on blockchain.

I believe AI is here to stay it's widely adopted by many industries and they have success integrating it into their system so why not the gambling industries, we'll see bettors trusting the AI for guidance in analysis,  and gambling operators will use AIs' to help create a perfect platform.

Of all the new technology that has been introduced after the internet and Bitcoin, AI made a huge impact and will create more impact on many industries.

But I don't want to see a terminator-like scenario with these AIs' they still should have limitations its mankind's safety net from these AIs.

Virtual Reality casinos sounds great, but there is a problem with them, and that's the provably fair gain, I mean how do you know that a deck has been shuffled in a fair way in a virtual reality, I think that will be a problem because to play in a virtual casino will be like playing with slots provider, they will have a license but they will not prove the fairness of each spin, so, this will be a complex topic that virtual casinos will have to find a way to work with it.

But as you mention, it would be great to put on the VR and walk into a casino, I love that idea.

As long as a casino keeps the house edge, AI is probably not of much help to their customers. Fraud prevention is still a big topic and I guess AI is already used by many casinos to spot suspicious activities. I wonder what players could do with AI to create an edge for themselves? Find arbitrage opportunities across different casinos? Bugen given how the market grew in recent years, what is even the chance that players find opportunities? It's probably more important that casinos keep reasonable limits in order to not go broke because of extraordinary bet sizes. If they do that and they keep the house edge, what could go wrong for them?

This is really the most anticipated innovation that I really want to try, but we know that it is too expensive. Have you experienced this in a casino? I have heard of this kind of game or gambling, but for sure they are already developing it, as right now most of the games for VR are just for fun and also for social media. The experience really is great right now, unlike the traditional one, meaning it is more enjoyable and you really feel the game, but again, addiction comes in with this kind of situation.

VR is like going to give a better experience by just gambling at home. The casino will make you finally feel at home by showing you around through their virtual reality.

That's actually a cool experience if ever there's a casino that's allowing you to do that. Like it's a whole new experience and gamblers will be active more than ever with that.

Everyone will go back to their childhood if that happens and it's not just sales as per casino but also the device that will require you to enter into their virtual casino.

VAR and AI technologies can enter the gambling industry, especially if there have been many developments in these two technologies. And both of them can provide a new experience in playing gambling because many people still cannot imagine what it's like to play gambling using these two technologies.

Or maybe the VAR technology will be tested first in several trusted casinos so that many people can try it. Of course, this requires tools to play gambling comfortably. But for now, the price is still very expensive. Meanwhile, AI technology is currently still being developed so that it can be even better so that later gamblers can also use it comfortably.

well, of course, having better technology in casinos will always be welcome, but the central problem is that the years go by, technology evolves a lot and casinos implement this technology, but the same problems of years are not solved, I'm talking about problems like: casino accuse the customer of having cheated, but the casino does not show evidence that the customer has cheated, there are also cases where the casino accuses the customer of having too many accounts but again the casino does not show any proof that the customer has many accounts, So I ask myself: would using AI in a casino and the casino have better resources to detect cheating would really solve the core problem? I keep wondering about it

because it seems to me that the real problem is on the side of many casinos that use arguments of cheating or many accounts to not pay customers who win a lot and in some cases they do this when the customer deposits little and manages to win more than 5x what he deposited in casino. now let's see in such a situation how good would virtual reality be for many casinos? the answer is that it would not be good for many casinos because they would lose opportunities to accuse customers of cheating or having too many accounts, at the end of the day technology can become a big enemy for certain casinos that have shady behaviors

In my opinion virtual reality / augmented reality is not going to be popular anytime soon, and I am saying this even though I really enjoy playing some games in VR
Many companies have tried and are still trying to popularize it, but it is very difficult, the market is not ready yet and the technology is not good enough, just ask an owner of virtual glasses and you will know that they probably played a week and then put it away

About the AI I totally agree. Just talking about the gambling industry, I'm sure they will use it for fraud control, loss reduction, expense reduction and security
Being more specific, they can use it to detect suspicious attitudes that nowadays can still go unnoticed, they can use it to replace human attendants, I'm not talking about automatic chat, but an AI that will seem like you are talking to a human and will solve your problem.
Maybe with AI and the right prompt, a casino owner can easily know which games are making the most profit, which are worth replacing, which have some likelihood of abuse by users...

The last drastic change in the industry that I remember was cryptos and the ease that this brought.
The next one like that we probably don't know yet.

If applied to the gambling sector, both new technologies are beneficial and would be a welcome advancement. The necessity of introducing AI into the gambling sector, in my opinion, outweighs the value of VR/AR casinos. Considering that I want AI to be most helpful in the analysis and detection of gamblers with gambling addiction. By doing this, gambling establishments or online platforms would be able to address the matter with these gamblers right away before it gets out of hand.

AI would have much of a place in the industry as the gambling world's already working with it right from the get-go. RNGs, interactions with virtual hostesses that aren't even humans in the first place, and many others are just a good example that AI has the industry in a chokehold. Albeit improvements in the recent renditions are definitely a welcome addition, but it doesn't necessarily equate to it becoming the next big thing because ever since the introduction of digital gambling means AI/computer brains have just been in the background of the success. VR on the other hand is a lost cause. Metaverse died off as fast as it took traction, AR is more of a novelty nowadays to play beat saber more than anything useful really, and people are starting to become more connected with the environment. Plus the industry relishes in its accessibility, if it implements VR it's just another thing that gamblers have to buy and what for? As if that would increase their chances of winning games.

If I may, I think the best case scenario is that every advertisement on the internet is going to be from gambling sites. I'm seeing it now, it's growing as we speak, and it's not that much but it's definitely taking over the mainstream social media.

If I'm not mistaken or just correct me if I'm wrong here, the Virtual Reality feature is now present at some casinos. I'm not familiar though how it works and what specific casino platforms are having that kind of feature. Not wrecking the fun with that innovative technology but I don't think that it's a big deal to consider if it will be adopted in the gambling industry since casino games can be compared to the usual online games where there will be improvement and big development while it progresses.

About the integration of a much more powerful and improved AI technology in the gambling industry, I also don't think that it's a big innovation in gambling since it's really a must-have feature to almost entire industries. Integrating that technology into the gambling platform will surely minimize most problems that they faced since then.

Looking forward to both innovations being adopted more although I'm pretty sure that there's no big reason to not get there.

both, VR/AR brings a new type of entertainment into gambling and there are a lot of things that gambling casinos can incorporate with it. it could also attract a lot of people wanting to experience new things. as for AI, it's a very practical technology to have, it can enhance their security, fraud detection, bug detection, etc... I have no doubt businesses(including casinos) are already looking at the possible application of AI in their business.

I have started seeing AI projects include crypto coin projects that are incorporating artificial intelligence into there community to make it more user friendly and attract investors and lover of AI to there platform. The way technology is growing this time around is very surprising and soon we shall to exploring more of AI games, tools and platforms in term of security, entertainment, work field etc. This is only the start of our journey to diversify the potential of artificial intelligence and incorporate it into our businesses, security, entrainment and lifestyle.

I think this is going to be the new innovation that casinos are going to make, one of the problems with online gambling is that despite being so convenient it lacks some of the excitement you can get at conventional casinos, however with virtual reality gear then you could design a virtual casino that allows players to get the best of both worlds, now it will take some time before it gains traction as VR equipment is expensive right now, but I think this is the future of online gambling.

I do have also the feeling that both would really be adopted knowing that these are type of innovation are the current ones who are really making up some noises on whatever industry that they are involved with.
We know that companies would really be tending out to go with the current trend or current developments on which they wouldnt really be letting themselves get behind when it comes to innovation and trend.
We know as a business then they would really be doing their best on going along on whats new and whats hot because in gambling industry which competition is really that high which it would really be normal that
they would really be thinking on offering something which would getting in line with these stuffs and the first or the few ones who would really be applying these things would really be able to get that
first slice of marketshare specially if it did really get that kind of recognition which it would really be their primary target on the first place.

Yeah I think you're dead on for both of these technologies being utilized by the gambling industry moving forward in time. I'm not so sure VR/AR is going to be ready anytime soon, but I imagine eventually someone is going to figure out how to make an unbelievably good VR/AR headset that when you put it on it's going to feel like you are legitimately at a casino playing.

In terms of AI, which isn't really AI (AGI is real AI in my opinion) I think this current version will certainly help with all the things you mentioned.  This is one reason why I invested so heavily in semiconductors years back, they are going to help run these AI programs. 

These technologies will surely be integrated and applied (not adopted) without even being noticed by most gamblers.

I'm sure it's already live on some platforms. Virtual Casinos though might be a unique thing but for me, it's just an added attraction to the platform. Mostly, aside from the fun, gamblers will stay on their purpose to make a profit, not to test these virtual reality games. Entertainment-wise, it's an attractive way to lure customers.

Referring to the use of enhanced AI and bots might be really a big demand in the future as it will reduce the cost of work by real humans that are prone to errors and might give a good satisfaction rate by most users because of a much smooth and professional service. AI is designed to make things smoother, at any given and related work and that will give any company ahead to those who are not using yet that kind of technology.

AR/VR i guess would come first even if AIs are more in a hype at this moment. AR/VR would be more likely demanded by gambling sites to give gamblers first hand experience and to not give them any idea of getting into land based ones, just to have that 'true' gambling experience. On the other hand, AI would be needing a lot of work for it to not be taken advantage against this industry such as with generating pstterns and such which would be against the concept of what 'gambling' is. But I think it would be a good idea to use such technology to detect bots and other cheating actions.

There's a lot of room to improve in this industry. The development is obvious from the platform to games being offered and this idea would make this industry more exciting in the future.

You can consider the NFT as their mode of payment or selling those assets that can be converted into their current price on the market but this takes a lot to consider for making into other currency as long the asset is not currently sold on a specific need. Seems like people are kept waiting for the web3 because of the convenience of adopting easy deposits, and withdrawals direct to their wallets without paying too much price. Currently, those are trends. I guess next is the third-world gambling experience.

As most of the users mentioned we'll be able to see AI and VR being added to the gambling industry. Already some platforms have launched the service, but not much have got used to it. These platforms requiring additional accessories to enjoy gambling makes it an expensive form of gambling. In simple, this will turn to be favourite for people who spend on gambling for fun and never mind about the losses.

Every form of advancement gets added to the industry, but it is the people who decides whether to use it or not. Maybe the next generation will enjoy it more and prioritise it.

These will be adopted for sure, especially in the user experience and the security of the casino. AR/VR is certainly something that will be interesting especially its development on the deployment of smooth gaming experience to their users. As for the AI, it can be used in a lot of things in terms of security and the flow of processes within the casino. Give it more time and developments on this space for gambling will push through. I'd rather wait for these developments for some time rather than use a platform that is half-baked.

AR/VR - Game experience/Integrations which are focused on games
AI - Security/Support sytem/Overall UI functions and other stuffs

Having both things to be integrated will surely be applied once it is really that applicable or really have no issues on doing so. Innovation and development is a never ending thing
on which if ever there's a chance for such change then it would really be applied and as long it would be a beneficial one then it wouldnt really not shocking if
ever they would really be making out those changes for the better user experience.

Even with all the recent upsets about AI techs been used in the gaming and gambling industry by customers to make their winning quite easy, i think its still going to have some disadvantage to a certain level because the owners of these gambling and gaming platform are actually running a business and they will be needing customers to lose to high margin If they ever want the business to be successful, so i think if AI can be used to win the house then there is problem, don't you think?

VR tech is already on the works a long time ago. however, the mass adoption is not yet seen because of the pricey experience. but later on, the gadget may become cheaper as more manufacturers will go into this business. but i think, VR adoption will come first.

I am sure artificial intelligence will be applied to the field of gambling because it is gaining ground in almost all sectors of the world. These bots could help analyze games by reviewing available information and making predictions accordingly. But we should also acknowledge that these predictions might not also be correct because artificial intelligence tools will only make predictions based on the information available which can also not be accurate b. After all, changes always occur in sports. So humans will be an important player in the gambling industry.

I might not like the idea of VR/AR Casinos because they will not give me the original gambling experience. It will make gambling more automated and less real. I am not a fan of all these advanced gaming technologies because they might lead to health issues and gambling addiction. I apologize if I sound backward but I will still want to stake my game conventional with my phone or laptop without wanting to feel the groove or entertainment that VR/AR casino offers. If I want to enjoy the casino or gambling environment, I will prefer to go to a land casino where I can hang out with friends and enjoy some drinks together.

Ai or chat bot is most likely to be used for customer services and help on pretty much any internet site but definitely I can see that technology being used on a gambling site to further help customers in the dead of night etc.   BTC especially is a global industry non stop changing, the price is never fixed rate even on weekends which suggests competitive industry has to be of the same relentless durable dynamic, an ideal application for a computer to provide its services to improve ease of use on a website.   Whether AI is used in a perhaps more complex behind the scenes function or for the games themselves, I think that would be further along the line in development and infrastructure.

Ehh I guess AR/VR can come in handy at some point, but I reckon it only caters to a niche audience? I mean it is a nice add-on for those who want it, but I'd say those are in the minority so I highly doubt they'd want to implement it just based on the minority.

AIs, well, they can serve as the host, maybe even an opponent. Or maybe just generate a random zero sum game with each instance if possible. I'd bet on it being an opponent though, just to see whether math can feat over luck.

I can't tell if online casinos are starting to use AI nowadays, but I had an unusual interaction with their live support and ended up talking with a bot. Unfortunately, I can only choose between a few responses, but I could see it happening years from now, and we could be talking to an AI support bot that gives off the same experience as the live support.

That's one of the downsides for us online gamblers right now, but physical casinos would have no problems picking up tons of headsets if it'll bring them success. We're still far from that point anyway, and maybe by the time VR casinos become a success, then headsets are probably affordable as well.

I think VR will be implemented to improve user experience whereas AI will be used by casinos to:


But using AI by customers will be useless, unless we are talking about using it for sports betting or poker but for casino games no matter how good the AI is, it will not be able to beat the HE so I think OP is wrong here.


The only exception I can think of is if the casino game is flawed and the AI is able to detect it.

VR might be next.
I want to see an online poker where you feel like you are in a real casino unlike now where it's usually just online with just cards being seen on your screen. VR could be the key to making it successful if we will stick with this online gambling method for a long time.
Using Avatars as your players and actually sitting at a table with a dealer waiting would be super fun and I don't doubt it could boost the number of players on that said card game.
As for now, there's no gambling site yet that gives me fun when playing this kind of game, most of them are just the same as what they did in Zynga Poker which I played for a long time until it got boring.
But, I also wish they will lessen the price of the technology/material that will be purchased for it to happen. It's still expensive now and I hope they could find a way to make money in a different method than putting all the price on the material, maybe advertising in games that will be created using VR.

Yeah I didn't exactly consider this while writing my own post but its true. I think casinos will integrate these systems just to advertise anyways. That's what I agree. I mean when many competitors are using these arguments: "We are AI supported casino, join revolution!" or "let's experience our casino through VR!". This would be very good way of advertising your brand. You may get extra market share just using the terms. Because these are trend. Exactly.

VR/AR can be a technology that will be implemented by casinos in the future to get lots of new users who like gambling using VR/AR because it will be very fun if gambling can be like in a land-based casino, and this technology can kill land-based casinos because gamblers will feel that it is no longer an obstacle to feel playing like in an offline casino where you can interact and like talking with gambling friends, this can be applied in card games and you can also interact with the dealer so it really feels like real.

Meanwhile, AI, if it can be more accurate when detecting fraud, would be great, so that when accusations are given to players, they are based on accurate assessments, not accusations without evidence, because allegations of fraud are often used by casinos to deceive their players, and indeed that is usually done by scam casinos.

Don't know about VR/AR as it is still very new at the moment. I am pretty sure that AI is already being used by online casinos. A simple use case would be customer support. They can easily reply to non complicated reply of an user for complicated ones they would be transferred to a human. They might be using AI to generate marketing contents. Replying to queries through email.

Yes, for now, there are lots of casinos that use AI as a technology that can help them run a casino business, such as for service or support, and some casinos even use AI or bots as a tool to detect suspicious actions taken by customers.
But it is also true that on the other hand casinos that use AI, gamblers also use AI to be able to get more information when predicting bets or to be able to win the game.
But unfortunately the use of Al is still not very perfect because it seems that some casinos prohibit gamblers from using it.

The gambling industry can implement both VR and AI, if there's a clear benefit from both technologies.
I doubt that VR adds anything new or exciting to the gambling experience. Creating a fake virtual casino environment won't stimulate the gamblers to spend more money. I'm not sure how AI would help for fighting fraud, since the online gambling industry already has enough anti-fraud protection measures in their arsenal. Perhaps the gamblers could use AI to improve their performance, and the online casino owners won't be very happy, if such thing happens.

Not just Apple but Samsung and Facebook with other big companies are already looking for how they can benefit from the hype of metaverse which is why they're working on virtual and artificial reality and that's why I believe VR will be adopted first by the casinos.

AI will mostly benefits the players so I don't think casinos will implement that on the casino but VR and AR will benefits the casinos and bring in revenue since it'll bring in a new set of players who will want to bet on the casinos from the comfort of their house.

And they'll also want to experience new adventures which the Virtual reality and artificial reality will provide. Many companies are working to bring out different devices to make Virtual Reality more fun and enjoyable so I bet VR/AR gets adopted first.

Well, businesses can employ any measures they want to ensure the security of their operations. Implementing technology is one way to prevent cheating by gamblers, so it's likely that they will invest in such measures. As for gamblers, it's not easy to win, and I'm not aware of any specific technology that guarantees success. However, as gambling sites continue to innovate and introduce new games, they will undoubtedly attract more gamblers, leading to significant growth in the industry.

The AI is a perfect match that can be applicable in many areas of the gambling section, games sports and the bet we made, this is a real world and a lifetime achievement that is about to begin an unfolding era of reality experience in an imaginary way, it could be also very helpful when used for the VR/AR promptness in their own channel among other applicable areas, which means we can have a broader application for the use of AI in many areas of the economy as the development proceed and the gambling platforms will also be a partakers of these same advancement.

VR and AR is really not needed right now and not even in the near future, maybe in far away future, like twenty years later then VR and AR can be a good way to go about gambling but right now it makes no sense, online casinos are not facing any problems that VR and AR can fix or should fix, the highest thing you can gain from VR and AR are fun and pleasure.

AI is still better because it has a problem or two that it can fix in online gambling platforms, AI can easily replace humans and AI can do the hard work for humans which can limit their extreme hard work on paper check and others, the higher the number of gamblers on an online casino the harder it will be for the team to keep everything under control.

AI has a better use case for online casinos and the blockchain in general but VR and AR are better right now for gaming purposes, using your TV at home or on your computer, it has everything to do with video games and metaverse but the needful in an online casino is very limited.

VR seems to be the technology that will be used by gambling platforms globally considering that by using VR technology it will provide players with a more real gaming experience. But of course the implementation of this technology is still constrained by VR equipment which is quite expensive nowadays and its development requires qualified resources to make it run smoothly.

VR technology will emerge in the game business because I've seen people using googles to play games. It seems interesting because we like to exercise according to the movements in the game. And I can't imagine how it would be if VAR were implemented in casinos. Maybe we can feel the feeling of playing a real poker game like in a land casino and holding the cards with our virtual hands like in a land casino.

I don't think AI can be applied to the game business in a short because it's still a new thing that needs to be studied and further developed. So it's still unclear which one will come out or be massively adopted by the casinos, and we just have to wait and see.

Both are interesting and can be a great way of advancing gamblers' experiences in the future. With a great idea and implementation, it could be a promising advancement in the gambling industry. I'm not sure if there are companies who have already released something like that, but I think it'll take some time before the public can adopt and enjoy this technology advancement in gambling since gamblers are still fine and still enjoying the current technology they have right now.

VR/AR casinos can be an expensive experience for an average gambler so probably, only rich gamblers can enjoy this technology. Tho I still think that it's a great concept and idea.

Both things will be adopted by the gambling industry soon and I think that they are already around the corner considering that these innovations are already in the works right as we speak, and some companies are even on their final phase and tests before they will release it. So, it will be a battle of which company will release it first and can produce some in the market so that these gambling industries can already get ahold of it.

There is nothing new there, mainly new technologies, there are significant advances and improvements in the AI, but the VR if you review and read about it you realize that every time it seemed to gain momentum but it regresses.

There was had a VR poker casino at the beginning of this century, more than 20 years ago, and that is the answer, the adoption or using that adjective is sometimes complex because these technologies are used but their results are somewhat passive, but they have adoption.

VR/AR Casinos and AI can enhance users' experience when they are fully adopted by casinos there's a lot of hype between these two technologies once it's rolled up and tested the userbase the casinos that will adopt these two will increase their user base.
There's a big probability that big casinos will adopt it first and roll it to their users and will become one of their trademarks.

There's a lot of hype, especially on AI, and there's growing interest among gamblers in the usage of AI especially in analysis and forecast hopefully they can implement in the next five years, I hope to see this in casinos I'm playing.

VR/AR will be never be that big. It has been tried before and people didn't like it back then. What makes you think they will like it now? I am not saying they will disappear quickly. These casinos too will have their customers but they will never become as big as the regular online casinos.

Casino v1.0 = Real Life Casinos
Casino v2.0 = Online Casinos
Casino v3.0 = AR/VR Casinos

I think

v2.0 > v1.0 > v3.0

Just because something is newer, doesn't mean it will be better.

Virtual casinos do sound fun, I can imagine wearing your VR headset and entering a realistic casino with players from all around the world gambling and competing with each other. There are virtual casinos in the metaverse available on decentraland where you can go and enjoy gambling in a 3d virtual environment but that experience is different.

AI is a sure thing and it will surely be used by almost every single industry in coming time, casinos can obviously use its advantages like assisting casinos with tighter security, catching cheaters, identifying bugs and errors, etc.

Virtual gambling looks cool, AFAIK there's a company that has this already and it was posted in the gambling section where that casino has a partnership with a VR device company. You'll need their very own device to log in to their casino but I barely remember the images of that casino. Maybe it's like a sandbox type of casino. We've got web3, NFT, and soon VR/AR is just gonna be a matter of time until many casinos will implement it as if an added feature to try them out.

For sure, this stuff is expensive. I mean, it is a one-time investment as you need to purchase VR, and then you can use it in games, interactive movies, etc. I don't know why I am excited about this, but for sure, the reason is the experience from it. It is really far from using our phone or PC, and also, it is very cool to have this as you can like escape from reality.

VR could really be a game changer in casinos whether it may be online or physical one. But of course, provided that the gambler has the means to have a VR box and headset for an immersive type of play. Since this needs additional accessories to access, it will be mostly in favor to those who can really afford and spend a few extra bucks for entertainment. But if we are talking about physical casinos, this could still cater anyone who wants to try without purchasing, rather just paying like the other games they usually pay for to enjoy and to profit maybe.

Although we have to admit that not really everyone likes the idea of this because sometimes it's not really their preference. But if the target market is already clear as day, the casino site can implement it without being on the losing end especially if there's high demand for it by the players.

But to buy their device is still very expensive and I don't think many gamblers can afford it. Meanwhile, most gamblers are still playing as usual without being able to try using a gaming device because they can't afford it. Indeed it is a new experience for gamblers but I am sure that the technology will be more developed and the price of the device will decrease so that more gamblers can afford it.

The gambling technology that might be applied might be VR technology because, for now, a device is already used. Meanwhile, AI technology still needs to be refined, so it seems it needs more time.

Isn't that the real goal of a casino? To give fun and pleasure for their customers, it will be optional of course because not all games suits it. You might not seen the advantage of it but casinos are already rooting for it to happen especially the big ones who can afford the expensive price tag, and that is why these tech companies are racing to produce their very own product in the market.

Both AR/VR and AI have their own uses. AR/VR will be needed to enhance the customer's experience while AI will be used in the casino's security problems as well as the customer service before it will answered by someone who does the real work.

This is what I don't like if ever they will adapt the VR technology in online casinos. The equipment needs to be bought at an expensive price. How will gamblers afford it if they think the money that will be used to purchase the VR equipment can instead be their gambling capital? There are other projects where they offer their equipment for a cheap price and they just take the profits from the game inside. Like the consoles today, the price of the games is more expensive than the console itself.
I don't mean to make it super cheap but they should put the retail price at an amount that can be bought at a decent price where many gamblers will be intrigued to use it. A project without customers may as well be a dead one if they cannot find a way to do the right marketing attack.

VR isn't new and to my best of knowledge it exists even before a decade so it's kind of old and the modern version of VR is the metaverse which might bring a change to the whole online community not just only the gambling industry and AI can be adopted as well so whatever the technology arrives and if the business demands it then just adapt it. AI gambling doesn't sound good to me so I'll go with VR or anything better than it.

Unless VR headsets and other equipments gets so cheap for retail gamblers, I think it will not come to adoption. For me I think AI gambling has the best chance to be huge but there should be some considerations for players since it's still in early stages of development  and it may not be that profitable as everyone may think.

How about combining AI with VR technology? This may produce mind-blowing results which maybe we can imagine at the moment.
Also, I understand that VR is more attractive, but we cannot ignore artificial intelligence completely.

Right now, it is difficult to comprehend how the AI can be beneficial for the gambling industry but then i am sure the gambling industry must be thinking on these terms, and then those casinos that will be pioneers to integrate AI in their casino, will surely lead the gambling industry.

in the near future what is becoming a trend that is still in the process of being adopted for casinos is AI which has been discussed several times in several threads and will certainly be followed by technological developments such as VR. although I'm not sure if VR can become the same trend as AI but usually in gambling when it looks interesting new technology it usually becomes interesting and can become hype in the long term.
and i think if the casino is able to support VR it will provide a new experience for all gamblers.

AI  is still big news but there was news on casinos and game providers integrating VR which is already happening all these two can be added and these two new technology can attract more players and can make casinos advance in the competition.
I support adding these two so users can have a new experience in their playing time, especially the AI it is now being added by many industries and it proved to be a big help for them, in two years' time we'll see if we can see these two on some casinos.

Are we sure the decks are fairly distributed in the casinos? Casinos always have hidden tricks and players don't want to see it because they like to deceive themselves. With a fair application of artificial intelligence it will be possible for casinos to distribute money more evenly. Since slot machines are already built on not making money, artificial intelligence can distribute money more fairly. Unfortunately casinos don't do this or even allow artificial intelligence to enter casinos to make more money. Bringing VR instead of AI technology is more sustainable for casinos.

^ That is what I am waiting for that will happen next.
By integrating AI into VR environments, we can create intelligent NPCs (non-playable characters) that react and adapt to users' actions, making the virtual experience more engaging and lifelike. AI algorithms can analyze user behavior and preferences in real-time, enabling personalized and more experiences within the VR environment. This can also lead to more realistic simulations, challenging games, and interactive storytelling experiences. Embracing the potential of both AI and VR will undoubtedly lead to unprecedented advancements and opportunities that we can't fully imagine yet.

With VR tech, gambling experience will be greatly improved. Some dangers that this may result to is that it will make people easily become addicted to gambling due to a more improved experience than before, even people who are already addicted to gambling with find it difficult to quit. so while an immersive gaming experience may be good for the casinos and their profit, it is dangerous to regular gamblers and  gambling.

I agree that these two technology will be likely adopted by the gambling industry, aside from that technology like blockchain and big data may also be another option for the gambling industry to be integrated into their system.  They have to adopt these techniques for better security, enhanced entertainment, increased market share, and efficiency.  With blockchain and AI being a hot topic, I am sure the gambling industry will take advantage of these technology to cater more audiences for their gaming services.

Honestly, I thought that online casinos would "enter headlong" into the metaverse, that the adoption of VR in gambling would be the innovation pilot for the rest of the world, but I was disappointed to believe in this idea.
The metaverse has not evolved and consequently I don't think VR for the crypto world has much future ahead of it either.

However, I'm betting heavily on AI in several segments and certainly gambling is one of them.
Casinos will gain a lot if they manage to combine artificial intelligence with their websites, predict game results more accurately and give players more accurate predictions so that they can place their bets with more success (in sports betting, this would be very good).

This may cause serious addiction especially for those that can not discipline when it comes to gambling. There are people that do find it difficult for them to concentrate or reduce the rate at which they bet which can easily become an addiction they might not able to control. Now, AI is onboard and everyone of us had been waiting to see AI games so they can explore and make some profits from it. Since this is only the beginning for artificial intelligence, we need to get ready for the worse that might be happening to the society because of AI future dominance.

VR would be cool to see, same as any game regularly playing the premium of gambling enables many things.   All you have to do to justify the expense is have the revenue stream of regular players who come your way rather then the oppositions games then its justified.    Considering how much competition there is and the size of gambling industry globally, it seems likely we can see VR and any technology involved in new gambling games at some point.  
  Scales of economy make this true, the common iphone or similar would have cost billions at one point in time as it was so specialized and unique but setup factories to supply components for millions into billions of people and per unit things become cheaper to provide and include in any product as a possibility.   VR isnt new, it just have to be put to work and actually be useful in that sense to the consumer, very posible.

integration of VR, AR, and metaverse would be ideal. It could be put on stalls of business owners in shops or malls if possible. Even if not everyone can afford it at home. If business owners can do it like for rent on a specific place, if it is profitable for them then they will make it happen. That would be awesome too because it would be more accessible to anyone which means if it is used in a way that is abusive, negatives of using it will emerge. So there are many things to consider.

I can't remember it but yes, IIRC, that was with a hefty price. It's exclusive only to that casino. The experience could be different entirely and it's like you are really in a virtual world ready to gamble. LOL.

It's not about how many gamblers can afford it but only those that can. If one can't afford it, then it simply means that they're not the target market of that device and company. You will feel that there's some difference of these gamblers when they're on that type of world and they're only a few.

There will certain gamblers that will afford that price and it's like going to be an exclusive club who owns it. Until everyone affords it, I am sure that the price will drop down due to supply and demand but while it's not yet trendy and the supply is lesser, the demand will get higher and these devices and casinos don't force everyone to buy them.

Yes we are still in the early stage for the full use of AI in gambling but since techology had so advanced that there are camera drones that can be used on multiple strategic positions to monitor more effectively the role of VR for proper evaluation of the scenes on football matches, they have although imoroved well more than before and still yet there's more need to add on this improvements because we progress on wilth technology advancement to help us decern the appropriate judge on situations.

Opera already put chatgpt as a feature already, and it is getting very troublesome, I think it is quite important to realize that we should be considering something else. There are even people here who are using chatgpt to write responses, obviously they do get caught and removed from their signature campaigns, but that's today, we don't know what the future holds.

I am 99% sure that AI will be somehow used at gambling as well, maybe we could have AI fed with data, every single data we can find, and asked to do odds? That way sportsbooks will not need to just wait and see what the situation with bets are, they could just give the AI some information and ask it to build an odd for which team to win, that could actually make some sense in the end.

We can't deny the fact that AIs are now part of the innovative gambling industry. We can't control their growth and development though some people still see these tools as threat. There are people who now rely to AIs when it comes to decision making and we can't blame them for that because there are already a few who got lucky through it.
There are also gambling sites that rely in AIs when it comes to security and organizing and been using AIs as their customer support tool. I think one of the negative effect of AIs nowadays is the improper use of it that there are people who have been using it to cheat. It could also be a reason for a gambling addiction increase since algorithms can manipulate odds and potential outcomes in gambling. I think AIs could help in so many ways as long as we are using them wisely and responsibly and with good intentions.

I think it may be just matter of time before casinos (specially in Asia) start to use androids or female robots as casino workers.
That would be attractive, specially in a technological themed casino, for example. I am also keeping in mind the love and tradition some nations in Asia have for the robotics and the electronics in general.

I would visit such a place, but I would still consider to continue to interact with actual woman on the tables or the bars.
Some may even say that human interaction is an important part of the brick and mortar casinos, does not matter where they are established.

Most gamblers can afford a phone of some kind and I've seen VR linked to that device.  It might not be the best VR but apparently its possible to build a holder for VR out of cardboard (or 3D print if you are determined to remain fancy and distinctive) and attach the phone to that, someone drew up the idea for that years ago.   So the entry level is covered in that way and phones are already on that pathway to wanting to become available to all like all large scale products.

I think all the casinos online must upgrade their website to keep abreast of increasingly massive technological developments, As we can see a browser like Opera in the picture above, they were updated to follow what's trending now. Maybe, what casinos should upgrade is AI security. a casino site must know if the user breaking the rules or have vulnerability were can auto checked by AI. As the picture above, opera has used AI to improve based on what we visited, and I think the casino must follow what Opera did, but more specifically in security.

Every technology which was initially released to the public was never affordable for everyone, including computers, televisions, telephones, mobile phones, and a lot more, so similarly, as time goes by, this technology will also start to become affordable for everyone but initially, it will of course only be accessible for a specific category of people who are considered to be the elite class.

Even if they are kept at a mall or at stalls or something, only a few people will be able to afford them because their rent or charges of use will be pretty high for sure and any person, especially someone who isn't doing well financially, will not be able to use them.

Just on reading the title of the OP, my thought immediately goes to AI. The question should not be which new technology will be adopted by the gambling industry. The AI is already here with us and many industries are adopting it. Refusing to adopt it is at your own peril and I think gambling industry will not be left out due to some vulnerability and loop holes that it has. AI can be the best technology to fix them and take gambling to another level. Meanwhile there will still be cons of AI in gambling. Every technology has some advantages and disadvantages.

After going through all the replies on this thread. Here is the synopsis of every reply: Most of you are super excited about the new technology. You believe that AI are already in place by online casinos for various work. The future of VR/AR will attract a large user base when the technology is available for everyone. I feel now is the right time to lock this thread. I can see spamming has started as a few replies now look repetitive. Thanks for being part of this discussion. I would come up with new topics that are not repetitive and intresting. Again thanks everyone who have contributed positively to this topic. Locking this thread for now.
