The ai video and voice is incredibly creepy

The AI video and robot voice is not good. Please, at least consider using an actual voice. It's too "uncanny valley" like! Shabbat shalom.

I like this.

It is similar to the difference between being intellectual which still allows you to be emotional, where as being emotional does not always allow you to be intellectual.

Having a good year allows for the possibility of a happy year. If fact why would it not be happy, if it is good.

Where as, a happy year, does not mean it is born of goodness.

May everyone have a steadfast year.

I love you guys! What a perfect way to begin preparations for the High Holy Days this year and any other year! An excellent reminder that 'fulfillment' does not mean 'likes' and 'strokes'.
"Have a meaningful year."... Viktor Frankl z"l would be delighted. As am I.
