The AI Tarot is a full-size, 78-card tarot deck made entirely through the use of early AI image-generation technology.

The piece explores the connection between predictive technology and The Oracle, and the evolution of divinatory traditions in the modern day.

The AI Tarot was featured in the 2024 WGSN Trend Report, Design Futures: Digital Divination.

The full meaning and process behind the piece is explained in my essay for Coeval Magazine:
