On July 1st, our staff used artificial intelligence clients to access a line for Major League Baseball betting. By combining the information provided by the three AI clients, we were able to confidently use it to place two wagers on the Los Angeles Dodgers vs. Chicago White Sox game that took place that evening.
We placed a bet on the under of 8.5 total runs, and also bet on the moneyline odds for the Dodgers to win. Both bets were winners.
These results are in stark contrast to our initial experiment with AI, which involved using it for WNBA betting. The difference is in how we processed the information.
Another key factor was choosing a contest without any key injuries involved, as that seemed to cause most of the errors in our first try.
Today, we are taking another stab at using AI to enhance our WNBA gambling efforts.
Los Angeles Sparks vs. Washington Mystics
- Point Spread: Sparks +3.0 (-105), Mystics -3.0 (-115)
- Moneyline: Sparks +130, Mystics -150
- Over: 167.5 (-110)
- Under: 167.5 (-110)
Perplexity:
- Multiple expert sources favor Mystics moneyline and -3.0/-3.5 ATS for a moderate-to-high confidence bet, based on their home advantage and better form in D.C. despite the recent blowout loss to the Sparks in L.A..
- At the same time, trends suggest value on the OVER: Los Angeles has seen 7 of their last 10 go over, and the last meeting produced 179 points. Both defenses are in the bottom half of the league.
OpenAI:
- Point Spread: Consider betting on the Sparks +3.0. The odds are slightly better at -105 compared to the Mystics at -115.
- Moneyline: If you are looking for a potential upset and higher return, betting on the Sparks at +130 might be a good option. However, if you prefer a safer bet, the Mystics at -150 are favored to win.
Grok:
- Smart Bet: Sparks +3.0 (-105). The Sparks’ offensive firepower and recent dominance over the Mystics make them a good bet to cover the spread, especially given Washington’s inconsistent ATS performance as favorites. The +3.0 spread provides a safety net for a close game.
- Smart Bet: Pass on Moneyline. The Mystics are the likely winners, but at -150, the odds don’t offer enough value for a favorite bet. The Sparks at +130 are tempting but risky given Washington’s home strength and the Sparks’ defensive struggles. The spread bet on Sparks +3.0 is a better value for capturing their potential to keep it close.
- Smart Bet: Under 167.5 (-110). Washington’s elite home defense and ability to force turnovers (Sparks average nearly 15 per game) could slow the game down, keeping the total under 167.5. The Mystics’ low offensive rating (12th) further supports a lower-scoring game, despite the Sparks’ offensive potential.
The results are inconsistent. Two clients suggest betting on the Sparks to cover the +3.0 points, while one believes that the Mystics will cover. The recommendations for moneyline betting and the over/under are also inconclusive.
Averaging the results, we can lean toward betting on the Sparks to cover.
