The Role of AI in Gambling

[Dave1]

With all of the hype surrounding AI, I wonder what impact will it have on the gambling industry? Perhaps, gamblers will experience more fairness and randomness when betting online. I mean, provably-fair casinos already exist. But AI can help improve them in the long run.

Well we can't deny that there could be AI powered cheating, just like what we discussed on Poker as they can have AI to analyze the dealt card and what will be the chances. On the other hand, casinos might used AI to to analyzed players behavior, and then they will give what games the players should pick.

Also it will be a good move it this online casinos are going to used AI to see suspicious players as well. Maybe if they noticed that the betting pattern has change, or if someone bet huge money on some player props like what might have happened to a NBA player that is being investigated right now. Another thing that I see with regards to behavioral pattern, this AI might identify potential gambling addicts or even addicts and so they can give warnings to the players or casino stepping up and apply the dreaded self-exclusion policy on them.

That’s probably the best use of AI for the bookies, spotting potential cheaters. It usually starts with suspicion, just like what happened with Beasley, then an investigation follows.

If it’s proven that he actually committed a violation or broke NBA rules, that would show how AI is really useful on the sportsbook’s side. I believe it could help minimize cheating in the long run. The only downside is, there’s nothing much positive for us bettors. I haven’t really heard of anyone who’s consistently succeeded in sports betting just by using AI to analyze games.

[Ishicryptic]

I think AI is more useful for casino operators, it helps them automate a lot of their operations, like using AI for customer support, or analyzing transactions such as bets, deposits, and withdrawals.

But for us gamblers, I’m not so sure. Even if I say that AI helps me, I honestly can’t back that up  because I haven’t been profitable yet.
So while it may offer some convenience or insight, it hasn’t really translated into better results for me personally.

What you said is true, AI will benefit the casinos more, it will help them to automate their systems and for customer support efficiency but I don't see how AI can help us gamblers because I don't think that they can accurately predict future outcomes. Except for gamblers that wants to manipulate a casino systems like perhaps using AI to have multiple accounts on their site without detection. I have never used AI for any gambling, I am still waiting to hear from those are using it to know how successful they have been with it's aid. I doubt that the casinos will allow for AI to be aiding gamblers to be winning more than what they can lose, it won't be good for their businesses.

Look AI is going to be a factor of life going forward and I see it as the same as the
"Quantum computer" argument, if people are going to use it to aid their gambling the
casinos and platforms are going to use it too.

In sports betting I can see where it would be used for pre match analysis and working
out  probabilities but aits not going to be able to make to 100% guarantees on
any outcome.

[iv4n]

AI is a tool that can be useful when researching something, when processing some data, and in my case it doesn't go beyond that. I see that some members have some interesting/weird ideas, and that tells me that younger people will increasingly use AI for everything and anything...

In any case, AI can be helpful in some things, but I don't see how AI will affect lucky based games yet. Most of them are played pretty fast and without the need for advice/help from AI.

[traderethereum]

Many things can happen to gambling industry but we may not see that in this moment and still need to wait for some time. AI itself need to be developed more than today so the use of AI will be better and many people can also used it.

AI can help improve but not many gamblers will see this chance because they are busy to learn how to command AI with they want.

I can see with the use of the gambling with the help of the AI is I guess with the statistics bases of the games such as the win rate and the percentage rates of the game so it will be use with the casino to promote their highest top games in their platform, also this gives an ease to the player with the sports betting too because the AI gives already the probability of win rates well most of the criteria we've been looking some of them already implemented with the casino but I don't rely much with the AI just a guide only.

[Charles-Tim]

Provable fairness is all about the random outcome's fairness being verifiable by each and every gambler or player. It is Bitcoin or blockchain related. It is about "don't trust, verify". Gone are days when fairness in casinos is only about certificates, accreditations, being audited, registration, licenses, etc. Cryptography, blockchain, has changed that because verifiability is being made accessible to everybody. The ability to prove or verify that each roll of a dice is as fair as presented, not manipulated, not cheated, not tweaked, not altered, etc. is as easy as confirming that the seeds match.

Are you explaining to me what provably fair games are? You do not have to explain to me that water can wet something, or that A, B and C are part of the alphabets, or that 1, 2, 3 are part of numbers. Go through my post again and read what I posted and understand what I mean and leave your explanation alone to yourself and those of you that provably fair games is only what you are using to make conclusion about casinos and not include the house edge.

Well, at least gambling platforms may start using AI to analyze user behavior for both rule violations and marketing purposes.
I think AI can be effective against abusers, although I wouldn't be surprised if abusers are also trying to use AI to find ways to beat a casino.

[Porfirii]

You guys talk about AI as it was invented yesterday, but the fact is that AI has existed for decades. When casinos calculate odds there's no one behind doing calculations with pen and paper and updating it, but an algorithm, and this is nothing new.

The hype has come from the novelty of the LLMs. I don't think these tools can help any gambler in the short term with their bets (maybe in games heavily based on skills, LLMs an help a player learn in the long term). Also, thanks to all this training, the AI is becoming more and more powerful, so the algorithms available for the casinos will be more and more accurate too. But the talk about the AI revolutionising the gambling industry or helping gamblers beat the house is totally out of context, IMO.

It can help players to learn in long term but that is different from earn. Or did you mean earn? Because you can learn and continue learning but be losing. If it is an heavily based game and the players which are the gamblers are playing against the casinos, just know that they can learn but the results will still be the same which are losses. The best is to learn money management and responsible gambling.

Yes, this is just exactly what is true.

[SmartGold01]

Just know that the casinos will make use of AI to make profit. The gamblers will continue to profit or lose as usual. That means more losses for gamblers will continue.

It's a usual thing we must learn to have control over whatever new technicalities that is being deployed by the gambling site or casino, we should know that there is never a real intention to what would ever benefited the gamblers rather the casino itself, that is why I don't usually get enticed with whatever they introduce as I believe those strategies is lure gamblers to come continue gambling on their site.

The main thing should be on sticking to their best way of gambling and never to be deceived and carried away with any new mothed that is introduced by the gambling/casino sites, I don't really think AI could make gambling that smoother and swifter as we may have think, because most of these AI are also being build by same fellow which it wouldn't give exact results instead 30-40 percent range and this is also lose. AI can take effects when they starts giving at least closely to 60-80 correct data to gamblers before we could say that it would take over the gambling industry.

[JunaidAzizi]

The era of using AI in gambling is now coming, and it will be more exciting and legitimate. It will have both positive and negative sides, depending on who uses it and which type is employed. The positive aspects will bring more precision and a fair system in gambling with such real random number generations. The algorithm will no longer be hidden, instead, it will be transparent. The negative side may include the misuse of casinos. We know that in gambling, human behavior plays a significant role, and AI may identify psychological weaknesses and use them against the users. So, it has both consequences, weather it will take place as a revolutionary advancement, but at the same time, it has some drawbacks for the users.

[danherbias07]

I do hope that it will be for the improvement of the gamblers and not the online casinos.

I mean, it's a fact that we are going to lose with or without AI injected into a gambling site. In fact, it might just make things worse for us gamblers if they find a way to minimize the winning chance for us while it still looks like we might win the game.
Anyway, I have seen gamblers using AI to their advantage, especially in sports betting. Perhaps, it could really be a good help for us.

It hasn't yet because the machine learning used to power AI is not as powerful yet simply because it lacks the data needed to help us in making better judgment when placing our bets or having some huge percentage advantage when placing our bets. Normally even if AI was powerful enough the casino would use that in their advantage as they have huge insane budget which can use to put AI at their favor compared to what normal people, normal gamblers like you and me would be able to use it for. For the moment I have tried sometimes with ChatGPT and Deepseek by using their idea on soccer betting on weekends during the major leagues and the results were not good at all. The AI told me different percentage for every event I asked them and even in the events where AI said to me there is a 78% win chance in the end it was a lost bet, so AI is not having a good or substantial role yet in gambling.

[Dr.Bitcoin_Strange]

AI will even give the casinos more hands to win the gamblers like they have always done. Just as Charles-Tim have said, profit is for the casinos and the gamblers are left with crumbs, the only time that some gamblers end up with much benefit is only when they luckily win a huge jackpot and we know that jackpots is very rare and even if it happens, it doesn't take some popular casinos more than a week to recover that money that they pay out to jackpots.

I'm very deep into the LLM part of my job, coding.. but I'm fascinated by all the possible uses that can be made of AI
this is definitely one of those, but how did you think you could use it

It's not enough to put LLM in a sector and just wait for it to work because we use AI

You think so? Aren't humans the one responsible for teaching the AI what its needed to do? A casino owner will have tk find AI that suits it's need, so I don't expect a lot of difference between the service the AI will provide vs that of human to the casinos customers.

The most favoured will still be the casino, fairness and randomness? a casino can show you that they are using AI but you won't know because all you need to do is place some bet and lose or win the game still.

You can't tell the casino to prove that they really implement AI and you winning or losing doesn't prove either, the most beneficial in this will be the casino, they are the ones to be discussing if using AI in their business is really worth it or not, AI advantage for gamblers is really small.

On the side of the casinos, I think that they're going to be more helpful than ever. But if a gambler thinks that AI will help them to win more, that's the wrong mindset that they're thinking of.

Aren't humans the one responsible for teaching the AI what its needed to do?

We're the ones programming them but they're also learning what we humans do. So in a sense of providing the safety of the bets, I don't know honestly how they'd apply that by the owners or devs.

But I guess it will be more of security related thing.

Sorry but I don't see any way Ai can improve gambling in the long run in such manner that it favors gamblers better than how things are currently are, even if casinos will implement Ai as a way or means of improving their provably fair system., believe me when I say that this casinos will still find a way to ensure that things remains as it is, most especially is the presence of Ai in their system will reduce their chances of profit and increase the gamblers chances of profit.

Casinos are a business and we all know what any one running a business is doing so to make money, casinos can never run at a loss except if the casino is being managed by people without any experience on how to run a casino.
