AI and Brain Science on Equilibrium in Gambling Addicition and Sports Betting is

[arjunmujay]

It seems to me that AI can easily identify gambling addiction in a person having information about his gambling activity. But I doubt that AI will be able to help in this matter, because a gambling addicted person does not realize that he has a problem and therefore does not fight his addiction. It is possible that AI can help in acquiring motivation in the fight against gambling addiction, but I think that we should not rely only on AI. Our lives depend only on ourselves.

AI itself will continue to be developed along with the times and behavioral patterns to resemble a person. However, it should also be remembered that AI will not be able to control emotions like humans in general. Therefore, I also agree that it will not be possible to fight gambling addiction using only AI. because the one who controls our actions is ourselves.

 I'm interested in the adoption method. Is it going to be a phone app or does the gambler wear an earpod connected to the AI support?

 Because in the moment of gambling, a gambler might not be chanced to turn on his phone and ask AI a question, he'll be more focused on winning, so how do gamblers adopt this technology effectively to increase their gambling success rate?

If this research works out fine, then I'll consider it as a plus for the gamers and betters because it will reduce their game losses, reduce their debt rate, and reduce depression which will increase their happiness. That's a win

I'm interested in learning more about how the AI and Brain Science can create an equilibrium in gambling addictions and sports betting.

I am not sure AI now can understand gambling addiction and overcome that matters because the technology needs to be developed more to make AI can analyze what happen to those people. Maybe it will be like a futuristic movie whereas AI can tell how and what happen to ourselves and they can suggest us to do something to solve the problem. But AI can only suggest to us what ways that we can do but AI can not force us to do as what AI suggest so that is why people who addicted to gambling needs to have their effort to realizes, accepting their gambling addiction, and search for how they can overcome their gambling addiction. Maybe AI can not help balance the gambling activity in this near but in the future, that can be possible as the technology can develop better than now.

Even the online gambling sites themselves can identify that and that's why some of them put the feature "self-assessment" and "gambling limits" so that it could help gamblers to be responsible ones.

I don't think AI can help gamblers who suffer from addiction to be cured of it. What they can only do is provide information if we are betting too much or calculate our betting amount. When it comes to help needed, I think it will always be our relatives, family, or the rehabilitation center that focuses on this certain problem that will help us be better again.
Still, I'd recommend self-assessment first. Ask ourselves the questions if we are stepping our of the line or if what we are doing is affecting our reality.

Not sure if AI really can help gambling addicts because logically it doesn't make sense. As I read, AI can be used for chatbot, while gambling addicts will not have time to use chatbot and identify whether they are addicted. What I know and I experienced, gambling addicts always felt fine without feeling himself addicted and artificial intelligence would not be able to help a gambling addict who did not have the desire to recover or avoid addiction.
So I will say if AI is most likely not that easy to balance gambling activities.

Agreed, addicts' time is not for science or AI, they are looking for more in a gamble, instead of changing that scary behavior, even if AI comes up with the most effective therapies, it is mostly just a theory shared by some author on the internet, the method is too general, and the situation of each patient needs to be based on the signs and frequency of the disease, obviously the intelligence of science is still not able to balance and observe the patient's condition to consider separate therapy. A doctor with research and therapy and years of experience clearly has the upper hand but luring addicts to the hospital, that's a funny joke

 There are many differences between ai and gambling. If you are a calm minded person then you will understand that AI will never grasp the concept of gambling and it can usually tell about different types of predictions and trades.  To my knowledge I have never seen anyone pay based on AI especially on gambling platforms. However, AI can determine things such as sports, but most of the time it is wrong. AI should never be used if a gambler holds a bet. Because these algorithms are setup in such a way that it is difficult to use AI.

Yes, Al technology still needs to be developed more significantly in analyzing people who enter gambling sites if it is indeed needed and important for gamblers in the future. But in my opinion, it is not easy if Al can really help maximally in terms of gambling bets, whatever it is because we know that the results cannot be predicted and maybe Al can only help gamblers to approach victory and skills can also be a refinement.

this topic is very interesting about how AI technology can help gambling addicts, but just like you i am not sure that it will be enough to help addicts fight their addiction, because addicts are very difficult to control their desires, aggressive, and difficult to talk to. no matter how hard ai technology can give suggestions to addicts about their games, it all depends on the person whether they want to listen to the AI's advice or not.

so perhaps it is necessary to develop supporting technology, such as neurolink, which will help addicts to control their thoughts, especially about gambling, and make their behavior more focused.

Yeah except the casino restrict or limit the account, so the addicts are forced to stop to gamble. This will make them to know if they're gamble too much, even though they have a choice to gamble on other casino. Gambling license should working together, so if one casino ban certain user, it will notify to the gambling license and this make other casinos know if they shouldn't accept that user (anything related to personal information e.g. name, email etc).

[Moreno233]

I don't know how AI can balance gambling activities, has AI been widely used for gambling? In my opinion NO, AI cannot help anything let alone not complicate the situation this is the behavior of how we are in gambling if excessive then we ourselves can balance not with AI.

I'm still not sure how AI can know your concerns in the case of addiction then with AI you can balance, this is unrealistic unless discipline is most important so that you can balance better gambling.

It's not that I underestimate AI, I don't know the integration of AI in gambling.

I also feel that AI is exaggerated in this case because gambling addiction is way beyond what AI can handle. People who are addicted to gambling, rarely even know that they have a problem because it usually start with setting targets that they want to achieve and doing everything to pursue it including taking unnecessary risk that end up harming their finances. AI cannot change someone's ambition neither can it trigger some stimuli that will make the gambler to stop gambling. It can only help the gambling in predicting patterns and left for the gambler to believe those signals or not.

[Marykeller]

As the world is advancing technology-wise, let's not leave what we can do by ourselves for AI to help us to do that. Each of our gambling activities is controlled by ourselves; we make out of it whatever we please. What AI can do for us is to act as a support, every other thing to follow is our decision to make about gambling. Whether to continue gambling for fun, as a way to make quick money, as a job, as a thing to do in leisure time, etc. Whatever one chooses, not AI will make the final decision. It is still channeled down on us ''the gamblers" to make the final decision about the support AI has provided for our gambling activities.

[sompitonov]

This is an interesting topic for discussion and it seems to me that over time AI will be introduced into almost all spheres of people's lives, including gambling. Perhaps if there is a lot of control over players in some countries, they can use it to identify addicted players and provide compulsory treatment or something like that. This situation has two sides, because compulsory treatment is always difficult and not everyone can withstand it, and the other side is that the state must solve the problem of addicted players, because families, careers, etc. can slowly be destroyed, this cannot be left to the mercy of fate...

Some people fail to understand that artificial intelligence and human neurology cannot function the same way, there are some human problems ai cannot solve and it requires only human input and these these include, addiction and emotional feelings, these can't be processed by ai in any way. A gambling behaviour or addiction can only be mitigated by humans, I don't know how they expect artificial intelligence to solve this problem apart from making suggestions it was programmed to give

Exactly, we are the only ones who are responsible for the actions that we take, but nevertheless, on the aspect of AI not having emotions or being able to control their emotions, those are the things that if AIs are undergoing steady upgrades, they can be improved.
 
On that aspect, they can be 100% like humans, but the developer can make them better, maybe program them in such a way that they can focus on helping addicts, but those addicts should be ready to render help to themselves first before anything can work.

[coolcoinz]

I won't completely ignore AI at this point and say it cannot help in gambling because there's still very little we know about its capabilities and potential use.
So, yes, I think it can be useful, although we are yet to determine how.

What I know is that AI is great at gathering and comparing information. Why would you do the research yourself to see which player was doing good and who was slacking in the last few matches. You can have all that handed to you by AI with it's own predictions. The problem is that everybody can act on the same prediction, so there will be no advantage for anyone, but maybe the bets will become more accurate. If that happens, wouldn't it destroy gambling? Why would anyone bet against an AI that has 90% accuracy?

How would you say AI can't help in this matter? Remember AI is used by medical practitioner who deals with gambling addiction.  From you stand point, you say that it seems AI can easily identify gambling addiction in a person, would it produce a synergized effect if this AI is used by these medical practitioner? 

No one says that AI is stand-alone in solving, preventing, and identifying gambling addiction.  From the beginning of the thread, it is said that AI can be use as assistant to both the medial experts and the gambling players.

We can use AI as a tool but to think for us, I think it is insane, so I agree with you but I would disagree if you say our lives depend only in ourselves because there is this term interdependence where everyone has to depend on others, there is also this environmental factors and more.  Our decision might be but our lives, there are lots of factors that affects it and often times we depend on others to solve things that is hard for us to fix.

I think it's really impossible to be 100% like a human.
must only take from the approaches of the classification that has been set by the programmer. and because of artificial intelligence, it certainly won't be as accurate as desired, but at least it can provide a little insight to gambling addicts to minimize their addiction.

it needs to be realized, psychologists also have a hard time handling cases of addicts. because each person has control over themselves. yes maybe when going to a psychologist can be cured, but slowly it will definitely repeat it again. that's still a real human, then what about AI.

It is still channeled down on us ''the gamblers" to make the final decision about the support AI has provided for our gambling activities.

I agree with that, indeed we cannot eliminate the development of technology, because this is also something that has many positive sides in helping us but even so, don't let what we can do ourselves become Ai's responsibility as you said, There are many things we can do like gambling, but in my opinion gambling is entirely in our own control and it depends on us ourselves who do it like what whether it's just for entertainment or as a source of income. But anyway we should not gamble for any other purpose than just for entertainment, besides that Ai can indeed help but it does not fully guarantee that we will continue to be okay. Everything needs to have certain limits in order to be in good condition.

It is not easy to use AI to maximally help us in gambling because we also need to know how to use AI properly and give the right command to AI. Maybe AI can gather the information that we needed with fast but we must know how to use the data with right. That is why AI still needs to be developed more to find the right way how to use it in our daily life including to be used for playing gambling. But we can not rely on the AI because we know that the outcome can not be predicted as the match can change anytime. If we can use AI with right, we will get the benefit but we must know how to run the AI. Many people still curious what AI looks in the future when the development reach a big improving.
