It's not apples to apples but it reminds me of a podcast I recently listened to where they talked about how many teenagers don't see any moral or ethical dilemmas with AI usage when it comes to creative outputs, compared to older people who see it as an ethical nightmare. As you mentioned, without the baseline history of seeing these kinds of things as harmful/bad, they just see it as a very normal thing to do.
Issues with sports gambling, including gamblers contacting players via social media, will be the biggest issue in sports over the next 20 years that won't nearly be reported as much as it should.
It's the rush...the endorphin release of winning or going on a streak. It transcends age groups. All of a sudden you feel like Ace Rothstein -- a reference that doesn't transcend age groups -- knowing more than the handicappers and coaches. Annnnnd, then Derrick Henry doesn't score a TD or Christian McCaffrey goes out with an injury or David Montgomery scores but not Jahmyr Gibbs. All of a sudden you go from Ace to the dealer sitting at the bar with Tommy begging for money to turn the heat on.
Anyhow, if FanDuel existed while we were in college, I would have maxed out one or two credit cards. I have no doubt.
