Messages of Netanyahu's advisor leaked: 'He asked ChatGPT to create a plan'

According to a report by Israel-based The Jerusalem Post, Netanyahu's advisor and close confidant Jonathan Urich asked ChatGPT to create a strategic plan to improve Qatar's image in Israel and the world.

According to the report, Urich asked the AI ​​chatbot for additional ideas to improve the image of Qatar Prime Minister Sheikh Mohammed bin Abdulrahman bin Jassim Al Thani and Emir Sheikh Tamim bin Hamad Al Thani.

It was also stated that Urich requested three separate communication strategies targeting Israeli citizens, Jewish communities around the world and influential figures in the United States.

Urich, who rejected the conversations even though he was shown them during the investigation, said, "I don't remember what I asked in the conversation. I ask questions about many topics."

In his relations with the media, the public, and the prime minister, Urich underlined that he was not acting on behalf of Qatar in Israel.

On the other hand, according to the Times of Israel, the text, which is claimed to be a WhatsApp correspondence, was leaked to the internet last week. The leaked screenshots included Urich's alleged messages with various journalists and political strategists.

According to Israel's Personal Data Protection Law, the content of criminally obtained correspondence is prohibited from being published, so their images were not shared in the media.

In response to the alleged leak, Urich said he would sue anyone who leaked or shared private conversations from his phone and threatened media outlets that published the messages in question.

Israel-based newspaper Haaretz reported last month that Urich had developed a tool using Anthropic's Claude engine that scans about 50 news sources every 90 seconds and produces summaries of statements about Netanyahu, his wife Sara and Likud.
