August 1, 2026 - 00:13

The Combat Antisemitism Movement has brought on Liran Amrany as its Senior Technology and AI Advisor, a newly created position that signals the group's push to use cutting-edge tools in the fight against rising hatred. The announcement came today, with CAM framing the hire as part of a broader strategy to stay ahead of how antisemitism spreads online and through emerging tech.

Amrany steps into the role as digital platforms and artificial intelligence reshape the way information moves, and unfortunately, the way hate travels too. CAM says his job will focus on spotting threats early, building tech-driven responses, and helping the organization understand where AI can be a force for good in countering bias. The move is not just about monitoring social media. It is about anticipating how bad actors will use new tools, from deepfakes to automated messaging, to target Jewish communities.

The appointment lands at a time when antisemitic incidents are climbing in many parts of the world, and much of that activity is playing out online. CAM has been vocal about the need for fresh approaches, and this hire is a clear bet that technology expertise belongs at the leadership table, not just in an IT department. Amrany brings a background in both tech and Jewish communal work, which CAM sees as a rare mix for this kind of strategic role.

His work will reportedly include advising on product development, data analysis, and partnerships with tech companies. The goal is to make sure CAM's response to antisemitism is as sophisticated as the platforms where it appears. No further details on specific projects were released, but the organization made clear that this is a long-term investment, not a short-term fix.
