Not sure if AI really can help gambling addicts because logically it doesn't make sense. As I read, AI can be used for chatbot, while gambling addicts will not have time to use chatbot and identify whether they are addicted. What I know and I experienced, gambling addicts always felt fine without feeling himself addicted and artificial intelligence would not be able to help a gambling addict who did not have the desire to recover or avoid addiction.
So I will say if AI is most likely not that easy to balance gambling activities.
Agreed, addicts' time is not for science or AI, they are looking for more in a gamble, instead of changing that scary behavior, even if AI comes up with the most effective therapies, it is mostly just a theory shared by some author on the internet, the method is too general, and the situation of each patient needs to be based on the signs and frequency of the disease, obviously the intelligence of science is still not able to balance and observe the patient's condition to consider separate therapy. A doctor with research and therapy and years of experience clearly has the upper hand but luring addicts to the hospital, that's a funny joke
