What passes for a unique push these days what's up with the RNG

[Hellridah]

I'm a little confused of late I thought the Random Number Generator that all games are meant to be running from is meant to be random 

then I'm hearing that AI now controls the RNG ? what's the point if that's the case : is that why nobody wants to expose their so called "backend" 

Well I think its time the authorities Took a look . 

And believe me this comment isn't random its been calculated I've been busy behind the scenes there's no way there's a legit RNG in operation anymore 

its controlled by AI which is Illegal and unless proven otherwise is assumed as such at this point : Sorry mike shackleford every push is no longer unique 

those days are gone wizard of odds .

had a chat with AI about it.

but if you try to use AI to predict or influence the outcome of a slot's RNG then that would be illegal and is considered cheating.

why?

Why It's Illegal

Gambling regulators and licensing bodies, such as the Nevada Gaming Commission and the European Union, have strict rules to ensure the integrity of casino games. These rules state that the outcome of a slot machine spin must be random and unpredictable. The RNGs used in modern slot machines are a key component of this. They are designed to be tamper-proof and are regularly audited by independent labs to ensure their fairness.

 

The Role of AI in Gambling

While using AI to cheat is illegal, AI is increasingly being used in the gambling industry for legitimate purposes that don't interfere with the RNG. These applications focus on improving the player experience, security, and responsible gambling measures.

Fraud Detection: Casinos use AI to analyze player behavior and identify patterns that may indicate fraudulent activity, such as money laundering or collusion.

Responsible Gaming: AI can monitor player activity and flag signs of problem gambling, like rapid losses or long playing sessions. This allows casinos to intervene and offer support to at-risk players.

Personalization: AI can be used to tailor a player's experience by suggesting games they might like or offering personalized bonuses, without affecting the core randomness of the games themselves.

@Flatzem888 What you have posted above are ONLY the PROs of the use of AIs.

What about the CONS?

Nope...NO ONE will ever admit that casinos are more in favour of the CONS because casinos stand to gain from them! The PROs are merely to satisfy the Regulations!

what are the cons of using AI in gambling industry ?

 

While AI offers many benefits to the gambling industry, such as improved security and responsible gambling measures, its use also carries significant risks and ethical concerns. These cons often stem from the dual nature of AI—its ability to both protect and exploit.

Here are the main disadvantages of using AI in the gambling industry:

 

1. Exacerbating Problem Gambling and Exploitation

 

This is arguably the most critical ethical concern. AI systems are designed to maximize engagement and profit. When applied to gambling, this can lead to:

• Algorithmic Persuasion: AI can analyze a player's behavior, preferences, and emotional state to create highly personalized and persuasive marketing messages or in-game "nudges." These might include targeted bonuses or promotions delivered after a losing streak, which can encourage a player to continue gambling and potentially push them deeper into harmful behavior.

• The "Black Box" Problem: Many AI models are "black boxes," meaning their decision-making processes are not transparent. This makes it difficult for regulators and players to understand how and why certain outcomes or incentives are being presented.

• Reinforcing the Illusion of Control: Personalized algorithms can make a player feel as though they have a unique advantage or a greater degree of control over the outcome of a game, even when it's purely based on chance. This illusion can be a key factor in the development of a gambling addiction.

 

2. Job Displacement and Reduced Human Interaction

 

The automation of casino operations can lead to significant job losses for human employees.

• Decline of Human Dealers: AI-powered virtual dealers and automated systems can handle tasks like dealing cards or spinning roulette wheels, reducing the need for human staff.

• Loss of the Social Aspect: A major appeal of traditional casinos is the social interaction with dealers and other players. Relying too heavily on AI can diminish this human element, creating a less engaging and more sterile environment for some players.

 

3. Increased Cheating and Fraud

 

While AI can be used to detect fraud, it can also be a tool for sophisticated cheating.

• AI-Powered Bots: Players can use advanced AI-powered "bet bots" or other tools to play games like poker with superhuman precision, giving them an unfair advantage over human opponents.

• Synthetic Identities: AI-generated deepfakes and synthetic identities can be used to bypass traditional security checks and "Know Your Customer" (KYC) protocols, facilitating money laundering and other fraudulent activities.

 

4. Technical and Operational Risks

 

The complexity of AI systems introduces new vulnerabilities and challenges.

• Technical Glitches: AI is not infallible. Malfunctions or bugs in the algorithm could lead to a variety of issues, from incorrect odds calculations to system crashes that disrupt gameplay and cause significant financial losses for both players and operators.

• Data and Privacy Concerns: AI systems in the gambling industry rely on vast amounts of player data, including financial and behavioral information. This raises major privacy concerns and creates a large, attractive target for hackers.

• Bias in Algorithms: If the data used to train an AI model is skewed, the resulting algorithm can be biased. For example, it might unfairly target certain demographics for more aggressive marketing or falsely flag players for suspicious behavior.

 

5. Regulatory and Legal Challenges

 

The rapid pace of AI development has outpaced the creation of clear regulations.

• Lack of Clear Guidelines: Most current gambling regulations were not designed with AI in mind. This regulatory vacuum makes it difficult for operators to know what is acceptable and for regulators to ensure fairness and prevent harm.

• Compliance Complexity: As regulators begin to catch up, new compliance obligations are emerging, which can be complex and costly for operators to implement.

The thing is the normal AI will only tell you so much ones without restraints such as DARK GPT will tell you more like the AI Driven "defenses" 

that activate to alter the program in real time : as I see it any attempt to mess with the RNG in any form is a breach of the law as true fairness is 

a thing of the past all this pattern recognition and sudden errors mid win streak is absolute nonsense is profit shaping by AI . 

[Flatzem888]

is there any form of profit shaping done by AI on slot machines ?

 

Yes, AI is being used in the gambling industry for what could be described as "profit shaping," but it's important to differentiate this from manipulating the game's core randomness. The key distinction is that AI is not used to cheat or control the Random Number Generator (RNG), which is the algorithm that determines the outcome of each spin. The RNG remains a fair, audited, and unbiased system.

 

Instead, AI is used to optimize casino profitability in a variety of other ways. This "profit shaping" is more about optimizing the player experience to maximize engagement and, consequently, revenue.

 

 

Here are the key ways AI is used for this purpose:

 

1. Dynamic Game Adjustments and Personalization

 

AI can analyze a player's behavior in real-time, including their betting patterns, time spent on the machine, win/loss ratio, and emotional state (in some advanced systems). Based on this data, the AI can make dynamic, real-time adjustments to the game's presentation and "flow" to keep the player engaged.

 

 

• Adjusting Payout Frequency: An AI might be programmed to give a player a small, frequent win after a series of losses to keep them from walking away. It's not changing the long-term Return to Player (RTP) percentage, but it's adjusting the short-term "win-loss" rhythm to make the experience more compelling.

• Customizing Game Features: The AI can change the game's music, bonus triggers, or graphical themes to match a player's preferences, which can increase their time spent on the machine.

 

2. Player Profiling and Predictive Analytics

 

AI creates detailed profiles of players based on their behavior, loyalty program data, and even demographic information. Casinos use this to predict player habits and a player's "lifetime value."

 

• Targeted Promotions: AI can predict when a player is likely to stop playing and can then trigger a personalized promotion or bonus, like a "Free $50 Slot Credit" text message, to lure them back in.

   

• Optimal Game Placement: AI analyzes which types of games are most profitable in certain locations and at specific times of the day, helping casinos optimize the placement of their slot machines on the casino floor.

   

 

3. Game Design and Optimization

 

AI is being used by game developers to design more engaging and profitable games from the ground up.

 

• Simulating Player Behavior: Before a new game is even released, an AI can simulate millions of game sessions to predict how players will interact with it and how long they will play. This helps developers fine-tune the game's mechanics to ensure it is both entertaining and profitable.

   

• Balancing Risk and Reward: AI can help developers find the perfect balance between risk and reward by adjusting things like jackpot frequency and size, which keeps players motivated and engaged.

   

It's crucial to reiterate that these actions do not involve manipulating the RNG. The core of the slot machine's fairness—the unpredictable and random nature of each spin—is legally protected and regularly audited. The "profit shaping" is done through external factors like player experience, personalization, and marketing, not by interfering with the game's core mathematical integrity.
