Topic: The Rise of Autonomous Car Racing (Read 392 times)

Honestly don't see the point in betting with games where AI is involved, it's pretty much just like betting on virtual horse racing if you think about it, it's just a matter of scalability that's setting those two apart if you'll ask me. Incidentally, partly the reason why people are so enticed with adrenaline sports like Racing and Boxing is because it exemplifies and glorifies just how great humans are when pushed against their limits. introducing AI to the equation may seem like a blatant disrespect to the culture especially to those who are very particular with the game they choose to bet on.

Personally while I really don't see the point of such a game, I am not against the idea of it being a major shit, but I would love to see some form of human interaction along the lines, like perhaps having the pit stop team still be humans, or have it be the other way around. The pit stop team being AI-powered, while the driver inside the machine remains human. At this point we can't introduce radical changes in the system as people will see it as blatant disrespect as said earlier, so make it gradual and for sure people will soften up to it.

Technology is something that really going advanced as we do go in further years or into the future and now at the present we are already seeing these stuffs on which its been applied on the gambling or betting field already.
The only thing that hesitates me is on how they would really be making it fair? How it would really be considered that there would really be no tweaks or intentional degrade of someone cars just to make those kind of
fixated matches or races on which we know that it could cause up that kind of manipulative kind of betting. This is why it would really be still giving out that kind of hindrance in overall fairness.
If ever they would be presenting something that assure that it would be fair then this might be something that getting more attention but honestly this is my first time on hearing out this kind of thing.

No the technology is more advanced than that. In some cities there are already fully autonomous taxies taking customers and bringing them to their destination without any human in the car except the customer. Waymo is operating in big cities like San Francisco and they will be available in bigger ones such as Los Angeles very soon. You can watch this video from a live stream of Jinnytty she tried this taxi service and as you can see there is no human except her.

I heard about autonomous car racing but so far I haven't really followed its development because I personally find it very uninteresting even though autonomous cars themselves are form of technological development that is now increasingly advanced.
I feel that there are no skills that can really be demonstrated in real terms because autonomous cars themselves are not controlled by humans who drive them directly but rather by the collaboration of several existing artificial intelligences.

I personally would never bet on an autonomous car racing event because of course it would be very difficult to predict, after all betting on an autonomous car racing event would be the same as betting on game of luck.
There will be no strategy that can produce accurate predictions on bets like this, everything works without many people knowing, in fact I'm sure every company in this field that is involved in creating autonomous cars will also cover each other advantages.
Obviously I would be much more interested in real car racing like NASCAR or F1 where we clearly see how real racers control the car they are driving to be able to finish in the lead.

Let me start by saying that this is a good development technological-wise, but in human gains, popularity and development, it is never a plus no matter what anyone says. I read about this a while ago and I can only feel for the next-generation racers, we are deviating from humans too much these days, and though it may look like nothing now, it will affect this aspect over time.

Besides, I still expect imperfection in this arrangement, for now, we should expect a lot of flaws, accidents and some ugly behaviours from the AIs. I hope the organisers make provisions for that to avoid much damage to properties and to avoid causing loss of lives when the AI-driven cars move away from their routes.

Can I bet on it? certainly not, for now, it is too risky, to say the least. Perhaps with time, after the automobiles have established good names for themselves in this area, I may consider. But we should know that we are betting on the best technology in this regard, so take that as how I feel about this development. Mine is to locate the company that can do it better and bet on their cars.

I think robots are still different from cars even though many cars now are automatic. It can be a sport because if we think about it, we already have other car sports like F1 race. We can say that we don't have an interest on some sports because we don't know the players, drivers, etc... involved but it does not mean that we can not enjoy betting on it anymore.

You know we can just put some cash and hit the bet button to see if we are lucky or not. In the case of E-sports, I think people find it unusual at first because they never thought video games can be in the level of sports / sports betting. Each has our own taste, though no doubt that some sports popularity are on a different scale.

This is the first time I have heard of something like this. I did some research and watched a couple of YouTube videos. I can't say I like it and I don't think I will ever bet on something like this (at least I think so now).

When there is already an Autonomous Car Racing league, we can probably say this is very serious, and other countries will join this sooner or later. We talk a lot about AI, and this is a good example of what AI will be used for. As I said, I can't say I like it but people who are more into this AI thing will follow and participate in this for sure.

Human vs Human, AI vs AI. Humans have different levels of intelligence, precision, analysis and mentality in each race or match. Meanwhile, AI is a human-made robot. Are there different advantages and disadvantages to the same product? Of course, if AI from a different creation is embedded in the machine then we can place bets. For example, Google, Facebook, Microsoft and OpenAI planted on different machines certainly have different advantages.

This is the the first time I have heard about this, completely autonomous car racing So how will it work in reality because it's too predictable right?

I remember remotely controlled races which is kind of fun to watch to be honest but I am never into this thing, but I am definitely looking into the technology of AI race so this means no need of racers anymore so this is going to be the another one AI is going to snatch from the humans...

This is just a high tech show and a rich man's toy, it will never be a real race and I dont think the bookmakers will ever provide a market for this kind of race.
Because everything is based on sensors, we definitely wont see this AI race like an F1 race, AI cannot possibly match human reflexes and instincts in car racing.
And silly accidents like the one in this video will often happen: https://x.com/JFranF1/status/1784253110627496082

It was also the first time I heard about this kind of sport, but the point is that it exists. I have done some research about it and saw that it is becoming a popular sport. There was a global championship for autonomous cars called Roborace, founded by Denis Sverdlov in 2015, and they had a series of competitions until it was stopped in 2022 due to lack of funding.

There is also another popular event called the Indy Autonomous Challenge where contenders for the first positions are university teams. The last event was held in Las Vegas early this year, and the winner was TUM Autonomous Motorsport (Technical University of Munich).

But the Abu Dhabi Autonomous Racing League, with a prize pool of up to $2.25 million, is the only self-driving racing league in the world. Eight teams from educational and technological institutions from the UAE, Germany, Italy, Singapore, the US, Hungary, and China participated in this year's event and were viewed by about 600,000 people. And it was TUM (Technical University of Munich) that also emergedas  the winner.

This is why I was also asking if it's just AI controlling these cars then there is nothing to bet on as they are all programmed. Unless they are remotely controlled by a person just waiting at the finish line and they are just remote drivers which is basically skills to learn.

You know when you look up to the idols you have when you see them win a gamer's tournament, teens have so much respect for these gamers and I think people will also become fans of these remote drivers if they could win this way.

I will not doubt the existence of something of this nature happening knowing how the world is fast moving on technology developments and innovations, we have to make a try more on something new and have to see that people enjoy and have the best satisfying gambling experience when it comes to sports and entertainments in this aspect, more innovations are still coming and this in consideration will be my first hearing about it.

what the heck I just heard about autonomous racing from you I mean racing with an electric car is enough for me but now an AI also want to take the stage hmmmmmmm and if you ask me Would you bet on an autonomous vehicle? Hell no bro hahhaha for me racing is about the skill of the driver and the engine roar and this makes race a race you know what I'm saying right basically a race with an engine and a professional driver makes the uniqueness of a race

How do you feel about placing your wagers on a race where the competitors are machines rather than humans? The answer would be it would be awkward at least for now, so the machines basically a smart and if the enemy was machine whos are gonna win??

Sure, maybe I was a bit too strict with my wording as it is of course up to everyone else which sport or activity they like and which not. It could indeed be an interesting event to watch and get an impression of what is technologically possible and how the different "participants" improve over time.

I only have issues with betting on it. I am not sure you can understand me here, but it is all about technology and no human factor anymore that is at play, I would kind of felt betrayed as I would always think there are so many ways to manipulate the outcome maybe?

And it is extremely difficult to rationally penalize something. If you bet on the best car and it gets crashed by the worst car, then the team and the car could get a penalty. In motorsports there is a human being that in 99.9% of the time wants to avoid a crash by nature and would be the one suffering from the crash, too.

I know there have been cases in motorsports where drivers intentionally caused accidents to get an advantage for the team or something along those lines, but if it is technology only, how would the word "intention" and penalty even come into play?

I would still say that it is a completely different sport when there are humans involved during the game who can be held responsible.

But again, as I said, after all it doesn't mean it wouldn't be interesting to see how people develop cars that can actually race with each other and make it through the track without crashing while overtaking others and so on.

This is the first time I read about an AI based car racing I'm betting on humans and animals because I can easily analyze the weaknesses of every participant but an AI is something different we will owe it up to luck for us to win here it's hard to make a concrete decision based on analysis because its AI.

But since this is coming up we'll have to see if it will gain support and how it will play out, if they can succeed on this many more will follow

The world is changing and because of the internet and the advancement of AI, the imaginative minds of gambling operators will come into play to implement this on as many platforms and models as in this case Car racing.

If this gains enough support we are likely to see events that are dedicated to Autonomous Car Racing if gamblers have success in this kind of event expect more of this.

I'm not a fan of sports racing it is very rare that I bet on this kind of bet, AI betting is a new interest I'm sure gamblers will explore it but they have to see the odds and the probability we can analyze it if it's human but it's different when its artificial intelligence operating it.

We are in an advancing world, and new things keep evolving every day for different purposes. Since this is in the entertainment scene, I can give it a try, and if I play it for the first time and it's well entertaining and also has no big gap between the normal casino games, then I will continue to play it. Slot games are program in such that it is not controlled by human, machines perhaps. I have not heard about this autonomous racing, but it seems like it's going to be interesting. 

This is why if you are not very familiar with the technology deployed on these cars, would not be advisable to bet on this sports. But maybe this is a good event to watch out for. See how this autonomous car racing is all about. Their possible flaws on the road and how they perform on the field. Somehow, this is an interesting race, however, betting for me is not advisable if you have no clue of their respective tech.

So I briefly searched on this event, and yes, there were still some flaws during the trial run.
The article In the first Autonomous Racing League race, the struggle was real stated that cars randomly juked, spun, turned into walls or just pulled off the track to take a little break.



This was their first run, so definitely it was not perfect. And since we are talking about technology here, it means, thru time, they will further improve its performance. For sure, their next run will be much better than their first.

True who has the best tech will win and what comes to mind is that this basically a battle for the better tech, software, and other innovations that could have real use case application in other fields aside sports than it is about racing. It also means that folks who are interested in this type of betting will have to go up their knowledge in tech stuff. The more experienced you are in the type of tech, software versions the better your chances of winning.

This is the first time I've heard of it, but it's like a robot race because everything runs automatically, and I don't think it's a sport, and I'm not interested in betting like that, even betting on F1 races or others the same because I don't follow car or motorbike races, so I'm clear will not be interested in betting on this new type, and maybe bookmakers need time to get people interested in betting on this type, just like at the beginning of e-sports where not many people bet but slowly this is becoming an option, although I am quite sure it's still not the main choice because betting on football will be the most popular, or other sports that are already very well known, and indeed new things will take time to attract many people.

I am not a supporter of car racing because I see it as dangerous. Seeing cars somersaulting several times and safety and medical teams racing to the accident site gives me great concern. I have also seen Abu Dhabi Autonomous Racing League clips a few times, and when I saw the speed and the risk, I thought it was just madness. But I didn't know that they are driverless cars.


This sport has similar features to car racing games that we play in computer games, and some people bet on it. I will definitely bet on this game if it has good odds and high records of wins. These machines are controlled by humans, so knowing who is behind each car will be the basis for placing bets. Another indicator will be how reliable or advanced the artificial intelligence package each car is using. I will bet on a racing car built or designed by a more reputable company.

I tell you,you've really spoken my mind on a large extent and I want to add that that's how some gamblers feel and I really like analytical skills that enables one think out of the box on what to do.
And I think the rise of this autonomous car racing Will be of Good making it suitable for gamblers to experience another phase of gambling with enthusiasm and so much fun.

It's a really cool concept but the problem with this is how does it actually work? I mean, when will the racer decide when to speed up because if I recall, there's some tactics involved in racing right? Like how you can delay someone by blocking their path or something like that, how would the AI be able to do that? If this is just in a computer, I'd get it because you can just program it but it seems that it's real cars that would be doing all of this, I'd still be looking forward for this because it's a new thing and one of a kind sports, here's to hoping that betting sites would add this.

Well, I didn't know anything about this, the first news I got is from you and I have thanked you with a merit.


As there is no human skill, I think it will be based on technology, as you say. Whoever has the best technology will win. The interesting thing will be to see if the competitors are close and if from one race to another there are changes in the podium due to improvements introduced by the different rivals.

Wow, its like the new horse racing but for extremely wealthy people living in the middle of the most prosperous desert on earth! If only Moses people got lost for 40 years in the desert when it was built up like that! Lol. This is actually like insanely cool. I wonder what its like to go to one of these races. I wonder how much people wager on these cars as well. Very interesting stuff here I will check it out!

I really did not know about this and someone who is madly in love with formula series, this one should be something that will peak my interest. I have watched the first video now, and I think it's quite clear that the situation is not improved yet, it's nowhere yet.

The idea is that eventually maybe cars will have an AI in it that could be better than human drivers, but right now the AI can't even put the track temp into play.

Most of the cars spun out at the same place, because that corner was hotter, and the more cars spin, the hotter it got, and worse for next cars up, no AI figured out that beforehand, a real driver would know and react accordingly and would have taken that corner slower than usual to fix the issue. Nothing that can't be solved, it just requires some time and to be fair some money and this could be quite entertaining.

This is my first time to hears about Autonomous Racing League. If you asks about how it feels about that, maybe the feels are different and it could be like we playing a car racing in video games. But we uses money in this gambling games and we don't have much data to analyzes who will wins. Maybe I will not bet on an autonomous vehicle at first to knows how the games will start and search for how to find the right one. We don't knows if that AI can be good choice like we wants but we can't deny that in the future, AI can be grow than now so we must prepares if that's happens. But we must knows how to choose our bet as every vehicle or player will use the newest AI so we must research before placing the bet. If we don't like to bet on autonomous vehicle, we still have the other sports that we can choose.

I think it’s an incredible fusion of technology and motorsport, pushing the boundaries with AI and advanced sensors to create self-driving race cars. It adds a new twist to the excitement, it’s all about which tech performs best under pressure. Placing wagers on autonomous vehicles would be a whole new ball game – it’s not just about the cars, but the ingenuity behind them.

I have no idea about this but using your introduction about the game it seems cool. Well, it's not like I am neglecting the real race but this is rare because most sports should have a human in it or playing. (if they already call this as a sport)
I am curious and I think they should start putting this on gambling sites. I just have no idea where they will put it if it's not under sports yet. Still, this is cool so I guess we should research about which car has the richest owner so we can spot who has a great AI in it. If there's no rule on how much money they can spend on a car and its AI, this might become unbalanced in the future.
I will definitely check it out later. Thank you for the information.

I saw people betting on completely fake cartoon-style cars and nothing was true and people really bet a lot of money on them so it wouldn't surprise me if someone bet on cars driven by AI, from a certain point of view it is also safer for the drivers who they will not have to be inside the car but on the other hand the true essence of the race is lost, the preparation of the drivers, the preparation of the cars of the competition between teams which then brought about the technological development so in my opinion it will not have much follow-up if not only for the purpose of betting

Well, of course, as long as the matches or the result are not rigged, corrupted, and manipulated by humans, because we know that it's easy for someone to manipulate this kind of technology, there's a possibility that the result of that automated car racing might be manipulated. Even though I think it would be fun to see that kind of betting game, what about betting on it? Of course, as I said, I will be cautious. If I notice that the results are suspicious, then I would rather quit and not bet on it anymore. Anyway, the reason that I will bet on this kind of betting game is because it's great to witness the invention of humans, and I like car racing, so I might be interested in the said betting game and actually bet on it. But no one beats the car racing where driven by humans; it's more thrilling, and you will be amazed at their skills.

I'm totally not interested in betting on car racing(like Formula 1 or NASCAR). Those so called "sports" simply aren't interesting to me.
I also would be totally indifferent towards this "autonomous car racing" league. This basically isn't a sport, because there aren't any athletes and it won't be luck based, because the richest autonomous car manufacturer would always win. So what's the point placing bets on such tournaments? I guess that the future is coming faster than we've expected. Maybe soon we will see robot sports, where robots fight and compete against each other.

i admit that it will probably be a very advanced race, where teams are not only required to develop their cars quickly, but also the ai ​​technology behind it. but it might be a boring race, because in my personal opinion, racing is not only about the car, but also about the driver's skill and emotions, that's what makes the race even more interesting. just imagine when you watch the race, what you see is just several cars racing each other, but there are no drivers cursing at each other, overtaking, or other dramas. maybe other people will be interested in betting on it, but i personally am not interested at all.

For me, I see this as another good gambling industry to explore, because inasmuch as when it comes to traditional car racing, the ability of the driver and his previous performance is been compared and contrast before placing a bet, when it comes to this artificial intelligence Car racing, same will such also be implemented, as the company's A.I car performance will also be compared before placing a bet. Because I'm sure all these A.I cars competing in this event will not be manufactured by a single automobile company, they must be different companies experimenting their A.I car performance in the industry. (i.e Tesla, Benz, Ferrari, Toyota & Honda).

Sounds like Robot wars a bit which can be bet on for sure but in this case Im not sure.   If it is AI it might be too automated and regular to really qualify as something valid as a bet. I would have to watch this alot more to decide, the best sports type bets are on sports developed over a long time with good set of established rules understood by all.

Its probably too new for now but I hope they succeed in making it a thing, I'm interested already.

Car racing is no longer the same with the introduction of AI to a car. I am hearing about such a racing foe the first time and it will be interesting to see how teams will perform with their self driving cars. Since it is being organised for the first time, putting a wager will be risky for now. A few more such competition will give more details about a team and its car performance. After that betting on these cars will be somewhat easier than now.

Well. I admit this is not something I would have expected to see. To me sports are more about the discipline and the physical and metal enhancing people can go through in order to out perform their foe. Would it be the same with those autonomous cars? I think not, though,  I am pretty sure there will be people willing to gamble on it (there are already leagues of fighting bots and people place bets on those, after all).
By the way, I am not sure whether this could he characterized as a e-sport or not, because, even though these races would not nearly close to players of games like League of Legends and Dota2, because of the involvement of hardware.

Either way, I would not bet on it initially, perhaps in the future when the leagues get more recognition and prestige, so it would be less likely to coerce teams onto fixing the match.

Os this a racing league that is ongoing or will it be something in the future?

I read here that it went on Trial in April but had to be stoped as all cars failed to finish:
https://www.theverge.com/2024/4/27/24142989/a2rl-autonomous-race-cars-f1-abu-dhabi

Keep in mind that no car company claims to have full autonomy in self driving. Certain companies that offer self driving rides only do it in certain well mapped parts of a few urban environments. No high ways and no fastlsnes. Still impressive but nowhere near racing yet. Maybe it'll take a few more years of chip efficiency and data training to be able to see this. But probably not full races this year.

Hopefully I'm wrong though because this is interesting.

I agree with this, knowing who the developer behind the AI is would definitely give gamblers an idea of how the tech will perform during the competition, and keeping the developer's identities anonymous would remove those advantages.

I feel like most of the people who'd enjoy this are the ones who are very interested and fascinated by AI tech and those who understand the complexity of the program that is made for the competition.

no, it's not that. it's just that I rarely bet on sports betting and when I do bet I usually just bet on sports that I like.

Yeap, bu I don't know if I like this very much.

I confess that despite recognizing that one of the biggest problems with conventional racing is the human risk involved in consequences and loss of human life, I don't know if a fully autonomous car will be "interesting".

I still think that "taking" a human driver out of control of a car will make racing very monotonous, predictable and "boring".
I would then bet on semi-autonomous driving, or perhaps a human pilot controlling the vehicle via remote control from the safety of the cockpit.

But, I love everything about racing, and I'm looking forward to the new events. I don't know if I'm going to bet on it yet, first I want to find out how it works, who the teams are and what their potential is.

Why won't you bet with it? Is it because humans are not involved and you think it is not going to be interesting and entertaining? We do not necessarily have to bet on human competitions. People have been betting on animals in sport betting since many years ago it is even in many decades ago. We are in the time of AI and we should expect AI to be used in a lot of places. I can use it to bet and see how it would be.

Removing the driver entirely makes it quite an unattractive sport in my opinion. It's more like getting an insight of the companies' technological position and maybe that can influence consumer decisions. But since you brought this up in the gambling discussion section, I wouldn't bet on any of those races. There is just no way to confirm whether everything has been true and fair. There could be so much manipulation.

And if it is perfect artificial intelligence that avoids all car accidents, than the car with the best tech should always win unless the tech fails. It is similar to betting on these simulated sport matches that some websites offer. I have never placed a bet on that as it is all about trusting the provider that no manipulation is going on, but there is no way to verify that either.

When they do these races in Abu Dhabi, are there fans celebrating that? It's kind of funny to think about people cheering for a car that has no driver.

Next stop: robotic dog races! Or what about pig races, automated robotic pig races? It's ridiculous to scream or cheering at something that has no soul.

And actually, autonomous means that there is nobody with a remote control driving the car. That could still be fun, but truly autonomous vehicles, I can't see how that would be an enjoyable event besides the idea that it might be interesting to see it once and to understand how well the tech is doing these days.

I think it's a gambling category like any other. And it seems really interesting. Even though we are betting on AI and superior technologies, there is still a human developer behind it. So the quality and efficiency of each vehicle will depend on the skills of the human developing those vehicles. It's like an action movie I forgot right now the name where robots were put to battle against themselves, but the robots were controlled by human beings.

So despite them being robots, the unique characteristics of each one (which were given by the humans) made total difference on the outcomes of each match. In my opinion it's just a matter of time until this category of gambling gets more recognization and becomes a hype in the sports betting scene. I'm sure many gamblers will enjoy playing on this concept, with serious chances of even replacing the current popularity traditional sports like soccer have.

From the article that stompix posted, the fun in actual F1 racing for some people who are fans of it are the individuals who are behind the steering wheel; it provides some idea on who to bet on, but with this autonomous car racing, outcomes from bets will be more random and harder than usual to predict, and that will scare some gamblers away. It will be more fun to know the identity of the developers, and it will give an angle to wager on their programming skills.

It will take a while before this become established in casinos and gamblers start developing some level of confidence in it. Right now there is little data that gamblers can use in deciding which company is better and can give them results but with time it will become easier. What I also think will happen here is that any company with superior tech will dominate the business as long as it takes for another company to come up with something better. This means there might really be less competition in the sports because it is usually easier to identify a better technology.

if there was some sort of randomness to it maybe? I mean there's been a lot of competitions that involved robotics and automation, e.g. finding the shortest path race, robotic cars fighting and they're all pretty interesting to watch. I'd say I can bet on those types of matches, so I don't think car racing would be any different.

But again, as long as there's something that would make the race something more exciting since in the first place, it being machines can make the match boring, yes, but the race itself can be adjusted to accommodate limits that wasn't possible before since the racers were humans. With machines being the racers, limits be damned no?

as much as I find it interesting I don't think I'll be betting on it, I'd be more interested in the advancements they made on this type of tech because of this competition(I bet elon musk is taking notes for his tesla car auto pilot feature). also, I feel like you are not actually placing wagers where the competitors are machines, you are still placing wagers on the human who programmed the AI.

In the world of gambling today, I think the race car category is a bit low when we look at the numbers of bettor that place bets on games there, I myself am not too much of a fan but I do like myself some good entertainment but I doubt it will be all that interesting as it's still at the early stages. What really marvel me now is how developed the world has become, I mean we now have games that are completely AI censored, that's so cool and what's next I could remember a few decades back if you would tell someone that all these development would be available he or she might have argued with you but now just look at how technology has rapidly made it's stand in the world.

This is remarkable and nothing short of amazing  but am trying not to capture this artificial intelligence controlled car racing with the virtual car racing on casino's and sports bet sites because having no human behind the steering just makes it that way. And just as someone in the comments said, leaving real live car racing competition to the computer what's the assurance that prominent the interest won't interfere in the process. We know technology is advancing and leading to a development of how things work in different sectors but let not forget that it also comes with its own flaws.

Another aspect of this is that it's gonna take a feeling of affection that could be found between the human driver and the fans and a lot of value for the race likely to reduce among fans seeing that it's machine drivers and not human.

It's not the first, we had one last year:
https://www.indyautonomouschallenge.com/

They are completely autonomous except for some safety shut down protocols, here is an article about the race:
https://www.motortrend.com/features/first-autonomous-car-race-abu-dhabi-a2rl-motorsports/

Not as entertaining as one might expect and with a few really bad glitches, probably right now in a human vs ai race the ai won't be able to overcome any driver, they calculate too much on predictable courses while humans don't act that logically, it would be quite funny to see them stuck and driving ina line because they don't see it possible passing the car in front despite slo speeds.

As for gambling, there will be little entertainment in this, since we will know all the data on the cars except for a glitch the outcome will be logical.

I'm still wondering how the algorithm works for this. Could it mean that every individual car have some sorts of human controlling the artificial intelligence behind the car. For instance, the cars will be controlled by high skilled developers who work behind the machine performance of the autonomous car or is it just going to be the artificial intelligence following the preset performance of each car based on the information it has about the engine capacity and so on. If it is latter, then it will mean that, a latest 2024 Ferrari car will always out speed a 2023 or 2022 Ferrari car by default regardless of the skills of the driver. Whereas in reality, a 2023 Ferrari can may likely win over a 2024 Ferrari car if for instance the driver skill in the 2023 car is higher than the other.

Why I'm just thinking this is, the level of precision of this game may be more than that of the drivers racing game which is more unlikely to predict since the drivers are still a factor to consider and count on. And yes, for a gambler, the more unpredictable the game becomes, the better it is.

Same thought that came to my mind when I went to the site the Op provided -if it’s will be driven like the F1 cars or something that would be controlled entirely by an AI.

The fact that it’s AI based and it will also be working on algorithms that will be constantly improving (according to the site) might make it a bit difficult for gamblers to make predictions on who is going to win. For entertainment purposes it might be great but when it come to gambling, we all know that punters prefer games that they can make good predictions on - not not that they would have to depend entirely on their luck.

Well since it’s the first of its kind, we’ll have to wait and see how it turns out, although I don’t have my hopes high cause I’m not a fan of car racing so I might end up not betting on it.

Wow I really haven't come across a gambling activity set up that is based on an autonomous car racing, but it will be very nice . Some gamblers like to try out new things and as long as casinos make it nice and interesting, gamblers will definitely like to try it out. You will even figure out that over time gamblers will begin to like the game as long as it's interesting and they are able to analyze it.
If you observe different types of gamblers have their likings in different gambling activities. Some of them like games that are more of analysis than luck and sometimes it's because they can easily have an edge of experience over gamblers newer to that particular gambling activity.

When they say AI, does it mean it's not controlled remotely by the owner of the car or is it just AI deciding how to beat the rest of these tiny cars?

Looks fun to be on the side of the tracks compared to the F1-like car race, you don't put yourself in danger. This isn't new when you think of those cars controlled remotely but I'm not sure if there is a betting site that lists this kind of competition. Must be for the enthusiasts.

I read about this some months ago but I do not know the name they call it. The world has really advanced. I can use this to bet but one thing that I noticed about me is that if it is not casino games, I prefer football the most. The second one that I use to bet is table tennis but it is not common like football. I prefer casinos than any other thing use for gambling or betting because I found the games helping me relaxing. But I will like to go for autonomous car racing.and see how it is. Is there any betting site offering it?

Hey punters, have you heard of the Abu Dhabi Autonomous Racing League? Maybe you have or not. If you haven't, Autonomous car racing is a rapidly advancing field that combines cutting-edge technologies such as artificial intelligence (AI), fast mobility stacks, innovative sensor technologies and edge computing to create high-performance vehicles that can perceive their surroundings, make decisions, and race competitively without human intervention. -https://a2rl.io/

When we talk about racing, we talk about the drivers, compare their performances, and all other odds but this is kind of different. It is all about betting on superior tech. Would you bet on an autonomous vehicle? How do you feel about placing your wagers on a race where the competitors are machines rather than humans?
