Magic Review - AI Stooge by Pavel Bach
David from Magic Orthodoxy reviews Pavel Bach’s “AI Stooge,” a unique magic effect leveraging ChatGPT to create the illusion of a digital stooge. Initially hesitant about incorporating AI into magic, David finds the effect compelling and well-executed. The trick requires pre-programming and setup within the app on your phone, and while it might appear hands-off, the magician needs to interact with the spectator's phone to make adjustments. The package includes several tricks like Insider Prompts, List Force, Palm Reading, Card Prediction, and a Lie Detector, demonstrating the potential for combining this app with other magical tools. David emphasizes the importance of watching the tutorial videos and strategically setting up tricks in advance to maintain the illusion of spontaneity. He believes “AI Stooge” represents a natural evolution of magic, particularly for younger generations comfortable with technology, and praises Pavel Bach for creating a well-structured and informative product.
