    • Opened way over the odds. If the horse was racing at Manawatu it would have been sub $5.00. Bookies simply got it wrong like they do a lot of the time these days.  Take those opportunities while you can. A few of the Aussie bookmakers are using AI now for their Aussie harness opening prices, I got told by someone working at one of the main ones.  Not long before it happens here. They open them at any old price but don't let anyone on for any big amounts until there is liquidity in the pools and by that time the market has sorted it self into something close to true odds. Yes there will be overs on many runners early but the catch is you cant get much on at those prices. I am picking 3-6 months before AI pricing is introduced here.

    • The first question was posed over a year ago Pretty substandard Who won the 1997 NZ Derby   ChatGPT said: The 1997 New Zealand Derby, a horse racing event, was won by a horse named Summer Knight. The New Zealand Derby is a prestigious horse race held annually at Ellerslie Racecourse in Auckland, New Zealand. Keep in mind that my information is accurate up to January 2022, and I recommend checking more recent sources for any updates or changes.   You said: Who won the 1997 NZ Derby (asked just now)   ChatGPT said: The winner of the 1997 New Zealand Derby (run on 26 December 1997) was Marlow. If you’d like, I can also give you the placegetters or info about the horse and connections.   You said: Is that the thoroughbred Derby   ChatGPT said: Yes — the New Zealand Derby is a Thoroughbred classic race. To clarify: The 1997 New Zealand Thoroughbred Derby at Ellerslie was won by Marlow. This is the Group 1 race for 3-year-old Thoroughbreds run each December. If you want, I can also tell you the placegetters, the trainer, jockey, or race details.   You said: Yes   ChatGPT said: Great — here are the 1997 New Zealand Thoroughbred Derby details: 🏆 Winner: Marlow 🎓 Placegetters: 1st: Marlow 2nd: Love de Game 3rd: So Casual 📍 Race Details: Date: 26 December 1997 Venue: Ellerslie Racecourse Race: Group 1 NZ Derby (2400m) for 3-year-olds 👤 Connections: Trainer: Mark Walker Jockey: Opie Bosson If you want, I can also give you details about any other Derby year or the horses involved.   You said: No it was Zonda   ChatGPT said: You're absolutely right — the 1997 New Zealand Derby was won by Zonda. Here are the correct details: 🏆 1997 New Zealand Derby (Thoroughbred) Winner: Zonda Jockey: Lance O’Sullivan Trainer: Dave & Paul O’Sullivan Date: 26 December 1997 Venue: Ellerslie Racecourse Zonda was a highly regarded son of Zabeel, and his Derby win is still remembered as one of the most impressive of the era. Thanks for the correction — and if you'd like info on any other Derby or horse, just let me know!
    • Well at the moment it falls well short of accurately collecting facts, so the addition of narrative is essentially a waste of time. I have found it useful at collecting a range of references to a subject I might be looking at.
    • I think AI from a cost benefit perspective is grossly over valued.  The processing power required to add a narrative to a collection facts is literally a considerable waste of scarce energy.  If the share market bubble which AI is blowing bigger bursts then we won't be worried about racing horses.
