In this episode of the
18Forty Podcast, Rabbi Gil Student speaks with Rabbi Aryeh Klapper and Sofer.ai CEO Zach Fish about how AI is reshaping questions of Jewish practice.
As AI simulates more and more human activities, we can’t help but wonder: Will AI replace rabbis? In this episode we discuss:
—What happens when centuries of halachic process meet a radically new technology?
—Can AI responsibly or accurately answer halachic questions?
—What are the ethical responsibilities of those who build and deploy AI?
Tune in for a conversation about the possibilities and limits of our digital tools.
Panel begins at 8:36.

Rabbi Aryeh Klapper is the dean of the Center for Modern Torah Leadership, the author of
Divine Will and Human Experience, and a frequent writer on the ethical dimensions of Jewish law.
