Can AI really help with sports betting, or are we overrating it?

[xenomorfo]

It will just always give you the information that AI sees on the internet, and that's it.

It's not like it has a magic crystal ball that can tell the future. It can just summarize how a game may end up or the results of it, but it's still a prediction. We can gather all the statistics, records, and game history using AI, but at the end of the day, it's our choice if we will follow it or use our instincts to win a bet.
I never really relied on AI, even until now. Most are just Google searches, and because they are injected with AI, maybe I am kind of using it too. Still, I want the final say to be mine, and it feels good if you win a bet using your own decision.

Periodically i see topics that talk about artificial intelligence.
In my opinion, you guys are wrong to use artificial intelligence in gambling, you are certainly in a situation of almost addiction.
Ask yourself a question, would you use AI to be intimate with your wife or partner? Gaming is entertainment, not a way to make money.

Yes, with the help of AI, so many things can be tracked accurately but the problem is that no matter how clean the data is, the outcome of the match often becomes random. Especially in football, when there is an injury or a red card, everything is completely reversed. For this reason I would say that AI is more useful as an assistant, not as a final decision. For example if someone manually analyzes 5 matches, it can be done in 30 matches with AI but the final decision has to be made on your own judgment.

There is no perfection in gambling with Ai. Using Ai to analyze your bet is not actually wrong, you can get useful information, and analysis through the use of Ai, but the guarantee of winning all the time is not there. As for me, using Ai to make my prediction has not favoured me in gambling, because out of 5 or 10 predictions, one will always disappoint. On my own part, making your own analysis can even be more helpful. If you make your own personal research, you can get more information, and make more stylish prediction based on your research instead of betting exactly on the instructions of Ai.

Using artificial intelligence to predict what will be the outcome in a bet is not different from when you use your head and available statistics to guess what will be the outcome of a bet. I know that artificial intelligence can gather information quickly and give you results within second to when you are going to spend minutes or hours for you to do research before making your own predictions.

[Bluedrem]

If I want to talk about myself, I can say that when I bet on sports, I often take the help of AI to recharge both sides in the game I am betting on. How many times have they faced each other, their winning rate in recent matches is high, what kind of performance of which player I have to take the help of artificial intelligence in searching for these things. It helps me a lot. But apart from getting information, I have asked AI many times which team will win, in which case this AI did not give me an answer with 100% certainty. It also presented a documentary about which team can win by comparing the performance of both the teams through analysis.

I really want to see outside media or members in this forum, gambling using ChatGPT Al is indeed big and rich because they succeeded in using Al for their betting method. but with valid evidence, but until now I don't have any, in fact I see those who gamble with Al always lose.

OP ChatGPT Al has been developed and circulated on the internet for a long time, but I haven't seen them succeed, meaning that Al doesn't work effectively in the gambling arena.

Never tried using AI for sports betting since doing personal analysis has always worked better. But AI could actually be helpful for things like checking player stats, looking at past match results/H2H, and following the latest updates about a sport team. When trying to guess which team wins or loses, relying too much on AI can be a mistake because no AI can tell for sure how a match will end.

I agree with your opinion here, relying on AI can cause one a terrible loss or mistake because AI can never predict the outcome of any game, but can only rely on past results and data that are at their disposal to analyse a team's performance, but can not give the recent or current state of a team and formation. This is why it is not conducive to use AI as a final resort to making predictions on your behalf, because it would likely not give you an accurate result.

Yes, AI may show the probability of winning between two sides of the game, but it will only work as a probability, i.e. it is not a sure result. In sports, there can be many types of uncertainties where some of the players may lose and some may win due to illness, poor performance or weather conditions, i.e. the game may suddenly change in a few moments, so none of us can predict these in advance and give sure results. AI may be able to analyze the performance or trend of a recent game  . However  these analyses are not completely accurate predictions, nor are they completely blind. However, making final decisions based on AI can be risky. Because it works on probabilities and will give results, it will not give any sure results.

AI isn't human and wouldn't be able to have the wisdom of human. Of course, AI is the best assistant to human and that was why it was created and not to be in charge. AI will assist you in your analysis and research but it's left for you to choose which team will win the game. Gambling shouldn't be taken too serious to the point of thinking that AI is smart enough to predict the outcome of a match.

If we try to rely on AI in live sports betting, it is our mistake because AI does not know the conditions of that match. AI gives a result only based on the previous results or data. Maybe while playing for a good team in a match, an important player gets injured during practice or gets a red card during the game, then the result will definitely change considering that situation. Moreover, the home ground advantage can also change the overall situation. In some cases, it is very common to lose to a big team despite being strong. That is why there is no logic in relying on AI. Who are not interested in data analysis and are inclined to bet only on luck can use AI.

[Justbillywitt]

AI cannot do it better than human when it comes to sports predictions, you are watching these games and you know the ability of the teams involved in the games. Same way we are struggling to predict the right results that's how the AI will find it difficult too to get the right result because Ai can't see the future, so it can't know the final outcome of games. AI can't help you win bets, it can only make predictions based on available data online. But to rely on AI completely for sports winnings won't be that profitable in my opinion.

[Creeper0]

We may be becoming too dependent on AI. We need to remember that AI bases its decisions on data, in the case of betting too it will use the statistics of previous matches to make predictions. But my question is - do all matches confirm the result based on previous statistics? The simple answer is, no.

If you have an idea about the game or are familiar with those teams, then I think you can make better predictions than AI. You can feel the real situation, AI cannot. AI cannot make any decisions outside of public opinion and statistics, but we have that freedom. Even if AI is effective in predictions, then casino owners will have no choice but to close the casinos. No one has the power to control fate, no matter who you take help from, they will not be able to give you the right predictions.

You are correct. AI  can not give results of a live match, and also considering what you have said about the live match and other changes that might occur while the match is ongoing, AI can not be able to give such results or updates, and that is where the problem or the failure begins. These alternation or live match side effects should be considered by anyone hoping on AI prediction to play games because such uncertainty might occur while a game is going on live, and the bettor might end up losing their game. Indeed, there is little or no logic in relying on AI for match prediction.

I think AI isn’t yet at a level, at least the versions available to the public, where it can accurately predict the outcomes of sports events, especially those happening in real time, since there are too many changing variables. However, it’s  possible that it will handle this more easily in the near future. At the same time, AI can be a useful assistant not only for players but also for bookmakers, and in that case the advantage may balance out again. Considering that success for bookmakers means higher profits, they may develop specialized systems to improve their performance, while players are more likely to rely on public versions, even paid ones, which may be less advanced.

While AI has become a great tool as it can help solving problems and making work much more easier for people, as there is virtually no field in life that you can talk about that the applications of AI is not there. How ever you have to know that Sporting betting or gambling generally is unique.  So trying to use AI to gambling for the purpose of winning is not a guarantee. AI can only help you predict in the sense that AI can help you with last performance, forms and tips about the two teams but can't accurately predict what will happen.


You have to know that gambling is dynamic, it's not a one way thing  in gambling even the most disadvantaged side records winning against the favorite side. So I will advise that while you should use AI for the purpose of getting information which you could use for gambling but should not rely surely on AI to be making predictions.

[NeuroticFish]

Indeed, very well said.


AI, if guided correctly (!!), can gather more data than most of us would, can calculate the probabilities very good and can give a well explained and convincing answer - which may be correct or not.
AI may not be able to take well into account that certain results are driven by certain conditions or players and may not know to calculate correctly the impact of certain drama - e.g. change of coach or team principal.

Keep in mind that AI doesn't "think". It works on similarities and probabilities.
And yes, as @Mate2237 also kinda mentioned, sports are dynamic, there's no 100% bet.

Yes, AI can never give accurate information about the results of gambling, AI has an idea about what happened today, but it does not have an accurate idea about what will happen tomorrow. If we do research based on accurate information without relying on AI, then it is definitely possible to make better predictions than AI. To win through gambling we have to depend on luck. If luck is not good then it is not possible to win. There is no confirm of winning as a result of gambling based on AI information. Gambling must be played with understanding. It is not right to rely on AI just in the hope of making money without knowing anything.

[Bitcoin.com97]

Ai can just help give information about the games but can’t make anyone win , I haven’t seen any win that is from Ai , if one should calm Down and do your analysis, your winning can be somehow better, Ai works  with the past performance and can’t  predict an accurate winning, and if the Winning comes too maybe it’s just luck with the help of Ai, so many person has this mindset that Ai prediction is absolutely correct and has so much confidence in Ai games , with such , your loses can be very painful, at long as betting is concerned , winning and loses can never be guaranteed, because any can take place at every point in time.

[macson]

If AI could accurately predict sports bets, many more people would become wealthy from sports betting. However, to date, there's no evidence that AI can help people accurately predict their bets. This means that AI is overrated, it's nothing more than software that you can use to gather information about your bets. It's still up to the bettor to make the decisions based on their experience and knowledge.

[Stormisover]

It’s absolutely impossible for ai to help gambler with sport betting, how is ai going to be accurate enough to know what is going to happen in the future, ai wasn’t made to predict the future, or for any prediction I’m completely sure that ai was just made to be able to help humans in different other areas, not on speculation and predictions of sports game ai can never be accurate in this regard, ai is perfect as we think because I’m completely sure that ai can be making mistakes.

Ai helps even if you don't make use of it in making your predictions that doesn't mean that others don't make use of it, the only best advice is that people shouldn't rely on AI for results because AI predictions is the same thing as that of the human predictions as they both doesn't give a guarantee of a final result, ai can make mistakes the same as humans too, I usually make my predictions my self because it gives me more confidence compared to using AI and,  in other sense too people can actually make comparison of their predictions and that of the AI and at the end they take a decision.
