I came across this video where a guy trained a model using neural networks to predict the Australian Open 2025, and shockingly, the AI predicted that Jannik Sinner would win. The YouTube video has 1 million views. Here’s the link: https://youtu.be/LkJpNLIaeVk?si=0_DipPBd6AsFCJgn
Why be surprised? Predicting Jannik Sinner to win Wimbledon is not surprising because he is a strong contender for the defending champion, if this is finally correct then people will think more that AI will help him to be able to predict the results of the match correctly even though without AI Jannik Sinner was already predicted to win Wimbledon, but is there anyone who uses AI to predict the women's division? I'm sure even if there was, AI would not display Iga Swiatek's name as the Wimbledon champion.

Don't think that AI will make bettors profitable because it makes it easier to predict match results, in fact, this kind of thinking can trap you.
