Jewish Educational Media (JEM) proudly announces the launch of JEMai, a groundbreaking AI-powered assistant designed to transform how people access and engage with the vast video archives of the teachings of the Rebbe, Rabbi Menachem M. Schneerson of righteous memory.
Artificial Intelligence. Genuine Wisdom. That’s the promise of JEMai — a tool that harnesses cutting-edge technology to bring the Rebbe’s timeless insights to life in a deeply personal and accessible way.
For the first time, individuals seeking practical advice, inspiration, or a deeper understanding of a Chassidic concept can explore the Rebbe’s teachings — simply by asking a question.
More than just a technological breakthrough, JEMai is a doorway into moments of the Rebbe’s care, vision, and wisdom, now accessible to anyone, anywhere.
Built on decades of interviews and meticulously curated video content, JEMai provides clear, concise responses drawn directly from the Rebbe’s own words. What makes it unique is that it doesn’t just give you an answer — it points you directly to the moment where the Rebbe speaks about it, allowing you to watch or read the content in its original setting.
JEMai is now entering its next phase of development by opening the platform to members of JEMClub, JEM’s membership program, on JEM.tv. Participant feedback will play a critical role in refining the tool ahead of its broader release, scheduled for this summer.
The JEMai initiative was made possible through generous lead funding by Mr. Igor Tulchinsky and the members of the JEM Foundation.
The Rohr Family Foundation and Benyamin Federman provided lead funding for the Living Archive preservation project.
The source materials are supplemented by guides and metadata developed by a group of scholars over a period of several years, a tagging effort that was supported by the Grinshtein Family, Eliyahu and Inna Kholodenko, George and Pamela Rohr, and Zusha and Shulamis Tenenbaum. Their generosity and foresight laid the foundation that made this historic leap forward a reality.
“This project is the fulfillment of something the Rebbe taught repeatedly,” said Rabbi Elkanah Shmotkin, Executive Director of JEM. “Every new frontier, every technological development, must be harnessed, with the greatest care, in order to share Torah’s timeless truth.”
