Factors you may have overlooked or not given sufficient weighting to. Tweaking your evolving algorithm or system or whatever it is you use. I don't use one because I rarely bet these days, but still an interesting topic

Would the benefit of AI to horse racing and wagering, being able to use its processing power to for example analyse the many factors of all horses in a race, such as weight, barrier, sectionals in previous races, jockey, track conditions, track, trial form, unlucky runs etc etc etc to determine the most likely winner. Much the same as many punters do manually. When a $30 outsider wins, you can quite often review its form and find a reason why it was going to run so well

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 it is best to keep monitoring how accurate it is. We have seen with this thread, it was full of mistakes, therefore that puts a question mark over the total accuracy of the reply. I can recall using AI over a year ago and it was poor. Huey gave you a like, is that a first

I would agree with that. The best option is to test it out on a subject you know well. When it is wrong though, challenge it and it will auto correct

No, a blend of both

Breeding is also wrong and not standing at Waikato Stud

You have to be wary with AI, quite often gets it wrong, eg 3. **Cool Aza Beel** (Savabeel - Miss Delighted) * **Purchase:** 2020 NZB Karaka Book 1. Bought for **NZ$400,000** (a joint-venture with Brendan and Jo Lindsay). * **Achievement:** Won the New Zealand Derby (G1). Standing at **Waikato Stud**, his success is a direct product of Ellis buying a top Savabeel colt.

All the more reason they should get creative and have a whole range of food trucks on course. Knowing how negative people are in racing, I'm sure they will find a reason not to. Imagine, Ellerslie could turn both Boxing Day and New Years Day infield into a race day food truck extravaganza. Every gourmet food, different ethnic food you could think of. Might even be worth going, maybe not, might run into the Dog, that would spoil it lol

Better than a stale ham sandwich

Well done, a bit of innovative thinking there. They could also extend the packages to the less formal situations like the outdoor picnics. There are lots of top-quality food trucks around these days that would love to get the opportunity to provide food on a racecourse

And they do a very poor job of it; in fact you could not call it competing. This is when it all started to go wrong in the 1990's when others started actively competing for the entertainment/hospitality dollar. The whole concept of a 'day at the races' is a very attractive proposition, but you have to actively market that to the general unwashed, not just for 6 weeks, but year in year out
