If you want to learn more, I came across a great article at https://exploringpsychics.com/what-s-inside-a-magic-8-ball-and-the-algorithm-of-work. It explains what's inside a magic 8 ball and how it actually works, including the mechanism and how the responses are generated. It’s super interesting, especially if you’ve always wondered if there’s any science behind it. Definitely worth a read!
