During the Spring Festival holiday that just passed, DeepSeek was undoubtedly the hottest topic. According to statistics from the domestic AI product list, within 20 days after the DeepSeek application was launched, the daily activity exceeded 20 million.
When people are busy using DeepSeek to write poems, write novels, or use it as a translator or tour guide, some new ways to play have become a trend. For example, let DeepSeek transform into a fortune teller. On social platforms such as Xiaohongshu and Weibo, it is not difficult to see shared posts where young people use DeepSeek to tell fortunes. Who uses DeepSeek to tell fortunes until 3 a.m.? I used DeepSeek to calculate the horoscope, saving money and trouble”……
In fact, not only DeepSeek, but also ChatGPT, which had been in flames before, failed to escape the fate of being asked to tell fortune. Whether it is Eastern metaphysics or Western Tarot, young people’s requirements for ChatGPT are comprehensive enough.
The ancients observed the sky at night, but today’s people say fortune. Such a seemingly niche track, but many people use it to make their first bucket of gold.
Cyber-fortune-telling more suitable for China babies”
“I didn’t expect fortune-tellers to have a career crisis these days. I couldn’t sleep when I was bored at night.”
“DeepSeek is so good at fortune-telling that I tried to use DeepSeek to analyze the next eight characters”
“Using DeepSeek to calculate the next term is too detailed, so detailed that it looks like a script”
……
Searching DeepSeek metaphysics on Xiaohongshu, nearly 6,000 notes show an alternative way to play this AI model, where young people calculate their relationships, test their careers, and ask about marriages. If you ask about career, DeepSeek’s results are broken down into career direction and development opportunities, while if you ask about positive fate, the answer is specific to: appearance and temperament (from facial features to body color, to dressing style), personality and behavior patterns, workplace and wealth characteristics, family background and relationship interactions, encounter scenarios and relationship advancement.
After swiping posts on the Internet that other netizens used DeepSeek to tell fortune, Yaling, born in the 2000s, downloaded DeepSeek with a skeptical attitude. She originally thought that she would use AI to ask valuable questions, but she did not expect to use AI to engage in metaphysics in the end. rdquo;
When Yaling followed the question copy provided by netizens, she entered her date of birth and specified the time and place of birth, work unit and place, gender, and MBTI type, and then asked DeepSeek to analyze the portrait of Zhengyuan. Soon, the results came into view, and they felt more detailed than spending money to find someone to calculate.& rdquo; Yaling was fascinated for a while, and then asked about her career and health in the coming year.
In order to make DeepSeek’s calculations more accurate, Yaling also learned many instructions from the Internet, and asked and improved the information many times, which is equivalent to training it to be more professional first. rdquo;
Use DeepSeek to calculate the result of the next term
Zinc Scale has noticed that there have been many related metaphysical instructions on major social platforms. Among them, the instructions include that you are now a professional researcher on traditional China eight-character numerology. If you are familiar with books such as the Poor Tong Guodian, please use your identity as a professional researcher on the four pillars and eight characters, and analyze my eight-character characters based on the books I mentioned above and related books and experiences on the four pillars and eight characters. Or if you are a master of numerology and are familiar with traditional numerology methods such as eight-character and mystery. Please help me review my three major events in the past ten years, and then focus on analyzing the overall fortune.”……
However, although many young people followed the trend and tested it, many people believed that the results were not accurate. Some netizens found that the results were similar when typing in my friend’s information and I.
In fact,Long before DeepSeek came out of the circle, the popular ChatGPT also became a tool for cyber fortune telling.
On social platforms such as Weibo and Xiaohongshu, many bloggers also use ChatGPT to tell fortune. One of them said that I gave relevant information such as birth date and asked ChatGPT to tell my fortune, and calculated my previous experiences so accurately. rdquo;
Zinc scale notes thatWhether it is DeepSeek or ChatGPT, the premise of Cybermetaphysics is a set of high-quality reminders, that is, the requirements must be described clearly and in as much detail as possible first.
If you have a specialization in your profession, who is making a fortune silently?
When DeepSeek and ChatGPT were developed with new metaphysical methods, DeepSeek obviously still had concerns. Recently, when many netizens asked for fortune-telling, DeepSeek gave the answer that I am sorry, I have not learned how to think about such questions. I am good at mathematics, code, and logic topics. Welcome to communicate with me or directly show that the server is busy.
However, the niche track of AI fortune-telling has long been crowded with Nuggets players. There are currently many AI fortune-telling applications on the market, including Quin, Vedic, Lumi, Tarotmaster, SigniFi, etc.
Among them, the slogan of AI tarot product Lumi is to enjoy the tarot card divination experience like chatting with friends.& rdquo; It is understood that Lumi allows users to randomly draw one or more tarot cards and provide in-depth analysis based on the selected question. However, it’s not free. Lumi is a membership-based and costs $12 per month. But at present, the official website has stopped operating.
Another AI fortune-telling application, Quin, charges 98 yuan a week, and can ask unlimited questions within 24 hours during the same conversation. According to Tianyan, this software is a software work of Shenzhen Aisi Software Technology Co., Ltd. and was first published in 2024. In Apple Mall, it ranks third on the Apple Entertainment List. It currently has more than 50,000 scores, with a score of 4.7 points.
According to the zinc scale experience, Quin’s process is more abundant than Lumi. In addition to the three steps of asking questions, drawing cards, and interpreting, it also recommends card arrays, and even reminds soothsayers to take a deep breath and stay focused when drawing cards. nbsp;

However, Zinc Scale noticed that in the Apple App Store, many people commented that Quin couldn’t log in and ask questions. Everything showed an error. He had just charged as a member, but the result kept showing that there was a verification error and the card could not be cancelled.”……
Also,Many large model applications have also produced related agentsFor example, Kimi’s Tarot Master.
Kimi was developed by Dark Side of the Moon, a company that was established less than 2 years ago. Kimi made its debut in October 2023 and was popular and went offline several times. In August 2024, news broke that Tencent participated in the company’s latest US$300 million financing, helping its valuation rise to US$3.3 billion, or approximately RMB 24 billion.
Kimi’s Intelligent Assistant’s Tarot Master Agent
In Kimi’s agent store, Tarot Master is listed among the top recommended apps and one of the only apps officially produced. Similar to offline tarot card divination, Kimi also requires users to ask a question first. Kimi provided several template questions, such as what the consequences of the decision I am about to make or please reveal to me my finances in the coming months. rdquo; However, Kimi currently does not charge for this service. Its slogan means that it will test if there is nothing to do, and it will cost no money.” rdquo;
Also,Some AI applications that are closely related to mental health also provide tarot chars-like functions。For example, AI diary ‘s Today’s Tarot Cards, AI psychological companionship application ‘s Star Tales in the Forest Healing Room, etc.
the hidden risks
You may think that AI fortune-telling is somewhat irresponsible, but as early as 2023, a paper was published in the sub-issue of Nature. This paper described an AI model method that can accurately predict a person from different aspects. Life, and the direction of this person’s life, including the individual’s health, income and the possibility of premature death, is almost a fortune-telling version of the big model.
According to the paper, the research team first used data on education, health, income, occupations and other life events of approximately 6 million people in a national registry in Denmark to design a machine learning method to build an individual’s human life trajectory. At the same time, based on the big language model, researchers have developed a new algorithm to predict an individual’s future life, and named this algorithm life2vec.
As you can see,“The development of AI+tools has become a major focus of attention in the entire industry。Whether it is an instant tool that focuses on improving efficiency, or a lightweight AI tool that adds traffic and focuses on playing tricks and activities, C-end users have exploded a lot of imagination in the general direction of AI.
However,There are also certain risks hidden behind AI fortune-telling.
According to the People’s Court of Tumote Right Banner, although the current AI fortune-telling software on the market generally uses Face Recognition and data processing technology, it cannot achieve high-accuracy predictions under the guise of technology and does not have real fortune-telling capabilities. In addition, some AI fortune-telling software essentially do not have the ability to develop and calculate AI technology, let alone use AI technology to calculate the destiny of mankind. This AI fortune-telling software sounds smart, but in fact, it is not highly technological and is not difficult to produce.

Previously, CCTV News also reported on online divination, pointing out that most AI fortune-telling programs require you to first upload a photo with clear facial features and no glasses or bangs, which may cause the leakage or improper use of personal biological information.
In fact, on social platforms, many netizens have reminded DeepSeek that fortune-telling has become popular recently and don’t be carried away. This note mentions that DeepSeek’s cyber fortune-telling function is indeed interesting, but it is essentially based on algorithms and data analysis. It is not a real fortune-telling. Protect privacy and be careful of information leakage. Don’t easily enter your personal information, such as birthday, ID number, home address, etc. rdquo;
Of course, most young people also understand that the way to salvation is not in it, and fate is not in the cards. Using AI to tell fortune is more for fun.
