Episode 53: AI, Intuition, and the Future of Connection
In this thought-provoking episode, we dive into one of the most controversial topics in the spiritual community: the intersection of AI and psychic work. From using ChatGPT for tarot meanings to friends asking AI about their love lives, we explore where technology meets intuition and where the line should be drawn. We discuss the benefits and pitfalls of AI tools, the importance of trusting your own inner guidance, and why human connection can never be replaced by algorithms. Plus, we share our own confessions about phone addiction, the grayscale hack, and why 2016 isn't coming back (and shouldn't).
