After a year-long experiment, my professor's experiment at training AI on horse races found that it could fairly accurately predict podium winners - it hyperfixated on red shirts. Happened that a rather famous jockey usually wore a red shirt. Him being in a race was a good indicator that he'd win it.

This is a thing. Going to the races and watching horses warming up in a paddock is very informative to those in the know. The first time i went, my girlfriend's father pointed out a horse that none if the others would run past, and that horse won it's heat.

I guess in theory you could maybe apply that to many things. Horse racing, poker, the courts system, commerical pilots.

Hard to imagine this hasn't already been done for decades. What role would AI play?
