EFF: DraftKings uses AI to target chronic gamblers

Original: DraftKings is using AI to behaviorally target chronic gamblers

The Electronic Frontier Foundation says DraftKings is using AI-driven behavioral advertising to identify and target customers showing signs of problem gambling, encouraging heavier betting. The group argues the practice exploits vulnerable users and calls for scrutiny of how gambling platforms deploy customer data and predictive tools. Critics online are questioning the ethics and legality of such targeting.

Why now: Concerns that AI-driven advertising exploits people with gambling addictions have sparked debate over regulation and corporate ethics.
