As gamers and spectators prepare for the 2025 World Series of Poker in Las Vegas on May 27, a cultural conversation around AI and ethics in gambling is brewing.
Though the gambling industry is expected to exceed $876 billion worldwide by 2026, there is a growing concern that unregulated AI systems can exploit vulnerable individuals and profit from them.
UF researcher Nasim Binesh, Ph.D., M.B.A., an assistant professor in the UF College of Health & Human Performance’s Department of Tourism, Hospitality & Event Management, is exploring this concern, having recently published a study in the International Journal of Hospitality & Tourism Administration about identifying the risks and ethics of using AI in gambling.
