(AI) and occult practices, particularly tarot reading, and how this combination is creating a new form of guidance and emotional support.<\/li>\n<li>It explores the historical and cultural revival of tarot, tracing its evolution from a card game to a spiritual tool, and noting the significant increase in its popularity, especially among Gen Z and fueled by social media.<\/li>\n<li>The study conducted examines how AI is being integrated into tarot readings: tarot readers use AI for self-reflection to bypass the complexities of interpreting numerous cards and to gain alternative perspectives.<\/li>\n<li>Although AI offers convenience, tarot readers also recognize its limitations in understanding personal context and nuances, leading them to use it for critical engagement rather than reliance.<\/li>\n<li>The future implications of AI as an oracle-like tool are scrutinized, with cautions against emotional dependence on the technology for companionship and guidance instead of human connections.<\/li>\n<li>The hope is that AI will serve as a tool to enhance self-reflection and critical thinking rather than providing simplistic or biased answers, thereby fostering deeper personal engagement in the quest for understanding.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>More tarot readers are turning to AI for advice, another sign of our
