Not only is the AI going to attempt to guess your moves, it's also way better at calculating the odds than you so yes, it'll definitely put the human player at a disadvantage. Seems like an overkill but I can see them attempting to use this in such a way that it wouldn't be obvious.
thats totally overkill! ripping the money of the gamblers at its best!
should be discreet otherwise, their area will be like a hunted one!
Exactly. I don't know much about probability but it is said that the slots in physical casinos have their chances set so that every now and then one would give a payout, to encourage those in other slots to continue. Of course it's different with card games but if they want it to be realistic, they'd have to throw in a few "errors" in to make the AI realistic.
If people feel they don't have the slightest chance of winning (though to be fair they really don't have much to begin with), they won't play.
AI can be used in order to provide benefits to the gamblers too. It is not that only the gambling casino can take benefit from AI.
By using Artificial intelligence online gambling can be made more interactive and user friendly.
