The rise of AI is both supercharging online antisemitism and empowering the fight against it.
As CyberWell Founder & CEO Tal-Or Cohen Montemayor explains, bad actors are using AI to make hateful content more engaging than ever — but it could also be the tool that helps us combat this hate at scale.

Social media algorithms are designed to reward emotions like anger and disgust. Too often, antisemitism falls into this category. With the help of powerful algorithms, they can spread faster and farther than more measured content — ensuring that extremism excels while moderate voices are ignored.

Misuse of Holocaust Memory Online in the Post-Gaza War Era - CyberWell
As the October 2025 Gaza-Israel war paused with a U.S.-brokered ceasefire, a disturbing trend emerged online. Gazan influencers began posting selfies, videos, and donation links with captions like “I’m a Holocaust survivor” or “Gaza Holocaust survivor.” These posts falsely accuse Israel of committing a Holocaust, which refers to a singular, unparalleled event – equating the Holocaust with the Gaza conflict.
