Does the AI That We Rely On Show Anti-Jewish Bias?
A new ADL report is the most comprehensive evaluation to date of anti-Jewish and anti-Israel bias in major large language models (LLMs) that enable artificial intelligence platforms — GPT (OpenAI), Claude (Anthropic), Gemini (Google) and Llama (Meta).
The report evaluated responses from these leading AI models that are already reshaping how people consume information, and uncovered concerning patterns of bias, misinformation and selective engagement on issues related to Jewish people, Israel and antisemitic tropes.
“As this research shows, AI models are not immune to deeply ingrained societal biases,” said Jonathan Greenblatt, CEO of ADL. “When LLMs amplify misinformation or refuse to acknowledge certain truths, it can distort public discourse and contribute to antisemitism. This report is an urgent call to AI developers.”

Keeping Communities Safe:
ADL continues to be the leading organization advocating to protect and expand the Nonprofit Security Grant Program (NSGP) which helps keep Jewish communities in America safe. Across the country, our synagogues, schools and community centers face threats. Faith-based institutions rely on NSGP to help fund alarms, guards and even bulletproof windows. After FEMA announced a funding freeze for all grant reimbursements, including NSGP, ADL helped organize a bipartisan congressional letter
signed by over 75 Members of Congress urging the White House to reverse FEMA’s pause on NSGP to help protect faith-based institutions.
You can add your voice to those Members of Congress; we are so grateful that over four thousand ADL supporters have already sent emails to the White House about this. Just scroll down to the next item in this newsletter and take action with ADL!

Hearing More About Campus Antisemitism:
Today, the Senate Committee on Health, Education, Labor and Pensions held a hearing on campus antisemitism. ADL has long urged the Senate to take this important step to confront the urgent and deeply troubling rise of antisemitism at colleges and universities across the country. Ahead of the hearing, ADL shared our research, resources and suggested questions that highlight how Jewish students are facing an unprecedented wave of harassment, intimidation and exclusion, and what university leaders must do to ensure that campuses remain safe and inclusive for all students. This hearing provides an opportunity for lawmakers to highlight the urgency of this moment and demand concrete
action. ADL will provide post-hearing updates to you.
Fighting Antisemitism in Brazil:
The ADL Center on Extremism welcomed two staff members of the Brazilian Jewish community, represented by the Confederação Israelita do Brasil (CONIB), to our Investigative Research Lab in New York to share experiences in fighting antisemitism and extremism. The collaboration is aimed at enhancing CONIB’s capacity to protect Jewish communities through practical training, digital threat monitoring and information exchanges.
