Transparent automation

AI use disclosure

AI can explain and synthesize structured astrology results, but it does not replace the deterministic calculation layer or make predictions certain.

Core commitments

  • AI is optional
  • Calculations remain deterministic
  • Evidence and uncertainty stay visible

These pages describe current product and editorial practices. They are operational disclosures, not legal advice, certification, or a guarantee that every provider or feature will remain unchanged.

Where AI is used

AI may generate or refine personalized interpretations, answer questions about saved readings, compare evidence across systems, and help improve the clarity of public educational drafts.

When AI is used for a reading, the model receives structured chart facts, evidence labels, system context, and uncertainty instructions rather than being asked to invent a chart.

Where AI is not used

Public calculator previews, Swiss Ephemeris position calculations, calendar cutoffs, dasha sequences, and numerology reductions are deterministic workflows. They do not require an AI model to produce the result.

AI output does not alter the underlying degree, date, score, house, aspect, stem, branch, or number evidence shown by the calculation layer.

Limitations and provider processing

Generative models can misunderstand context, omit nuance, or produce language that sounds more certain than the evidence supports. Users should inspect the calculation and treat interpretation as reflective guidance.

AI requests may be processed by OpenAI's API services. OpenAI states that API inputs and outputs are not used to train its models by default unless the customer explicitly opts in, while provider retention and abuse-monitoring rules may still apply.

Frequently asked questions

Can I use ReadAstrology without AI?

Yes. Public calculators and core chart engines return deterministic results without an AI call. AI is optional for interpretation and synthesis features.

Does the AI know facts that are not in my chart?

It may use general language-model knowledge, but personalized claims should remain grounded in the structured evidence supplied by ReadAstrology. The evidence drawer is the place to verify those claims.
