NYSGC moves to restrict AI use in sports betting promotions and wagering recommendations

The New York State Gaming Commission (NYSGC) has moved forward with a plan that would bar mobile sports betting operators from relying on artificial intelligence to tailor promotions and wagering recommendations to individual customers. Regulators said the step is designed to protect consumers. Commissioners voted unanimously on Friday to advance a revised version of the proposal, which sets limits on how mobile sports wagering licensees deploy AI, algorithmic profiling and other automated systems when they offer promotions and betting advice.
