Question:
I have developed a software that uses artificial intelligence to predict lottery results (but does not organize gambling or advertise for lottery) and only provides predictions based on mathematical statistics. If I charge users for this service, would it be considered a violation of any laws?
Answer:
According to current regulations, only lotteries recognized by the State are considered conditional business activities, while lotteries are not recognized and are considered illegal gambling.
Currently, there are no specific regulations regarding the use of AI to predict lottery results. However, according to Clause 9, Article 4 of the Draft Decree on Lottery Business, one of the prohibited acts is "providing information predicting lottery results in advance".
Therefore, if this provision is applied, using AI to predict lottery results could be considered as providing predictive information and thus prohibited under the Draft Decree.
