AI Powered Astrology - AI talks about your personality

GPT-3 models have been trained on a huge corpus of text, which obviously includes references to astrology. Can we use language models to write birth charts?

In 2023 it will be 20 years since I finished my Ph. D. (I still feel young though :-D ). My thesis was focused on a lot of optimizations and field work with the AMANDA detector, located at the South Pole, Antarctica. AMANDA used to detect neutrinos (still does, but now it is part of the IceCube detector). After that, I moved back to Argentina to work at the Pierre Auger Observatory, which detects high energy cosmic rays. What I want to say with this intro is that my field of work used to be astroparticle physics. Most people I know don't get what that is about, so I usually need to give them a little bit of context. In spite of my efforts to explain, many people still ask me about the zodiac signs and how that relates to their personality. I find this funny and make no judgement about astrology and its supporters. So, I decided to play along and build something fun related to astrology. As part of my job at Infolytics, I usually need to demo how our models work. I am also very interested in Large Language Models (LLM). I then merged everything: I make OpenAI's davinci talk about astrology and wrap a front end around, so you can play with it.
