B”H
The internet for regular teenagers, not others that are bedridden, or with disabilities for whom this media is a source of blessing, can and should be regulated, would be my small observation.
Socializing “face to face” can never be replaced by technology, the same way you wouldn’t embrace or handshake or kiss a machine no matter how perfect it is. On the other hand it has brought us closer than ever worldwide, how would I have ever accessed such pearls of wisdom if it were not for this form of communication!
Thank you wonderful panel of experts in this matter. Reply

Today (Thursday, Dec. 9) has been fascinating. Thank you so much for making this public. All the speakers were excellent. I wonder if Rabbi Prof. Steinberg could recommend some links or literature on the neurological impact of social media. Also, Mr. Zemel mentioned protecting against Ransomware, and I'd love to know what strategies he recommends. His explanations on using OSINT was excellent. Reply

Robbye Miami, Florida December 9, 2021

When one posts personal information, are they harming themselves. We are obligated to protect ourselves from harm? Reply

Peter Reynders Griesheim December 9, 2021

Very true. Even very experienced people like myself can become victim to these attacks. I suffered through it two weeks ago. Thank you so much to address these evil plots at chabad.org. Reply

Rita Forbes Clinton December 8, 2021

Knowledge about AI, its technological mechanics, its future role and how it relates to the individual and society at large is very significant. The MIT diagrams was fascinating! This is not a sci-fi movie. AI is real and is being enlarged. I am happy to see the Chabad.org staff sharing their expertise in this field and how it can affect us.
It would be nice to have tape recordings of these and future sessions to review and study when the time of day is not so busy. Overall, this was an impressive session and I am looking forward to the other intellectual lectures and data.

Thank you, Reply

the sound volume is not great Reply

Adriana Albuquerque Rio de Janeiro, Brazil December 8, 2021

Sorry, but I think the sound is so low. Can you put it a bit louder? Reply

daniela December 8, 2021

Artificiel intelligence does not change the weather like god

Theirs good and bad Jews the good it’s those who recongnize their purpose
And give back to who it belong accordingly to divine orders.
