Cash it or trash it: How artificial intelligence impacts sports betting

Can the rise of artificial intelligence help you win a bet? Maybe.

After we’ve seen the popularity of AI-powered tools like Snapchat’s AI tool or ChatGPT, sports bettors might consider getting in on the action.

Artificial intelligence could be a huge boost to those wanting to get a leg up against the books and make more money. But is it too good to be true?

Improved Accuracy/Faster

Artificial intelligence algorithms can analyze a lot of data at a much faster pace than humans can. This improved accuracy of predictions in sports betting means the AI-powered tools can react in real-time, possibly faster than when there’s line movement in a live betting situation.

AI can process data fast while recognizing patterns and predictions based on those patterns, which could lead to more accurate outcomes.

AI-powered tools can also be tailored to an individual’s preferences, which means it could be any sport, bet type or individual player or team prop bet.

Because AI is still in its early development stages, it’s safe to say the tool’s algorithm can be complex to maneuver and understand, making it more challenging for people to rely on the predictions they make.

Too much reliance on AI-powered tools takes away from personal insight which is important for betting decisions, even if the tool provides personalized data.

A lot of questions surround the use of artificial intelligence in sports betting, but luckily bettors can look to sports betting websites and popular sports personalities for betting advice in the meantime.
