After DraftKings Report, Three States Turn Attention To AI

NEW YORK – The New York Times published a story on Sept. 19 that reported that DraftKings was using AI and machine learning models to identify gamblers who were most likely to lose money so that they could send them more promotions to keep them using the platform. Per the story, similar models were created in-house to identify problem gamblers and those who were most at risk of developing gambling addictions, but DraftKings never implemented them.
