Why use TB of data when people have literally just been making astrology based content up and it has still resonated with people on a personal level? Seems like a way to eat into your profit margins unnecessarily.

Seems like an AI spewing out feel-good crap that gets proof-read would accomplish the same at a fraction of the cost.

Is there any chance you would hire remote/visa? I am a full stack functional programmer with Haskell experience and I've noticed Co-Star postings with interest a few times now, however I am Canadian out of Toronto, Canada
