Can AI write a horoscope or tarot reading ?

Astrology apps now run their daily horoscopes through LLMs. The Barnum-effect bar is low; LLMs clear it easily.

AI can generate text based on patterns and associations learned from large datasets, including those related to horoscopes and tarot readings. Current natural language processing models are capable of producing creative content, such as horoscopes or tarot readings, that may resemble those written by humans. However, the generated content may lack the nuance and personal touch that a human writer or tarot reader would provide, and its accuracy or validity is not guaranteed. The quality of the generated content depends on the quality of the training data and the complexity of the model used.
