DraftKings accused of using AI to target chronic gamblers

Original: DraftKings is using AI to behaviorally target chronic gamblers

The Electronic Frontier Foundation says DraftKings is using artificial intelligence and behavioral advertising to identify and target customers showing signs of problem gambling, serving them ads designed to keep them betting. The report argues the practice supercharges the harms of online gambling by exploiting vulnerable users. The company has not responded in the collected material, and critics are calling for regulatory scrutiny of AI-driven advertising in the gambling industry.

Why now: The EFF's report has drawn attention because it alleges a major gambling company is using AI to exploit addicted customers.
