AI is really, really powerful. More so in analyzing large sets of historical data and producing insights. But when it comes down to sports betting, so many unpredictable situations cannot be captured by AI. Athletic performances are dictated by so many different things: injuries; shifts in the teams' performance, the weather, even sometimes an athlete's emotional state. Things that historical data can't always predict. It gives you an upper hand in maths. However, is it funny how sports would be a whole different ball game, if you will, because far more fluid than the numbers in any book? AI may predict the better winning percentage by your team under similar circumstances, but things like a sudden red card cannot be factored into it. Shock injury to a star player or even some strategic changes by the coach that could change the dynamic of the game.
Of course, with all these, I feel that AI is still a good tool for a bettor if applied properly. It can give a base for analysis. It draws conclusions from the data that can inform your decisions. However, relying solely on AI is a misconception of sorts. Properly successful bettors have put to use a mixture of all tools, whether it be AI, personal research, and predictions. The AI can pick the stronger options based on analysis. But don't forget the practical conditions that may alter the outcome in ways AI systems cannot predict.
For example, if the AI gives a particular team a more impressive win rate based on their past performance. Critical thinking about the present is important. Do some new players join? Are key players tired? Were there any recent changes in technologies? Sometimes, a better understanding of human memory and physiology can fill the gaps where AI can make predictions. So, I think the better way is to see AI predictions as a huge mystery. Use it to guide your thinking.
AI can catch the information from what is already happening but they still don't know what will happen later. I mean they can not have an accurate prediction but only percentage how and what will happen. So we can not rely to AI 100% because there is still a chance their prediction will not happen because the situation can change anytime. We must know about that so we need to gather more information from other sources so we can have our own analysis that can be a comparison between our analysis and what AI prediction.
The existence of AI help us to collect the data without taking too long so we can use that for our analysis. Our analyze time will not takes too long so we can directly place our bet. We need to determine our decision and not just based on AI especially if we want to improve our skills to be better.
AI can do many things and help us in our daily life so we need to learn how to use AI for our benefits.
