Summary

Tarot card readers are increasingly using AI to help interpret their readings, with some using it to generate alternative perspectives and challenge their own biases. A study of 12 tarot practitioners found that they used AI to sidestep the frustration of interpreting multiple cards and to feel more confident about their interpretations. However, there are concerns about the reliance on AI for emotional support and advice, with some professionals using it in their practice and others warning about the risks of emotional dependence and delusional beliefs.
