She Let ChatGPT Read Her Coffee Grounds – Then Filed for Divorce

A Greek woman filed for divorce in 2024 after ChatGPT interpreted her husband's coffee grounds as signs of infidelity.
The couple asked ChatGPT to perform tasseography, an ancient form of divination using coffee grounds, which the AI simulated by analyzing images and online patterns.
ChatGPT suggested that the husband was secretly thinking about and already involved with a woman identified by a name starting with the letter E, predicting that this relationship would ultimately harm their marriage.
The 12-year marriage ended after the wife took ChatGPT's claims seriously, telling her children and serving divorce papers three days after the husband refused separation, who dismissed the AI's claims as nonsense.
This case underscores that AI-generated fortune-telling lacks legal standing and highlights risks of emotional harm when AI outputs are treated as factual or psychic truth.
