The following is a quote from Matt Hegarty's article entitled "Industry coming to grips with fallout from computerized wagering" in the DRF.
"According to O’Rourke and Cummings, the industry should be looking at the creation of off-the-shelf tools that could give players a better chance at competing against the CRWs. Those could include applications that simulate the CRW’s own analyses, the broadcast of real-time imputed final odds, and artificial-intelligence tools.
“With the democratization of AI, does that allow us to develop some tools that would provide some balance to the other side?” O’Rourke said."
This is not the first time I have read or heard people suggesting that the solution to non-CRW-handicapper losses is to give them better tools for wagering, etc. to allow them to compete with the teams. In my mind, trying to turn horse race wagering into a battle of the computers is a fool's errand. Lose the parents who teach their children how to read and analyze past performances in the Daily Racing Form or patterns on the TG sheets, or the friends who do the same for friends, and you lose the game.
