Michi-bot
Meet Michi-Bot (beta version) – a wise assistant on the writings of Rabbi Michael Avraham
What is this?
Michi-Bot is a conversation bot that learns from the comprehensive content of Rabbi Michael Avraham, and helps find, summarize, and cross-reference ideas from his writings — quickly and in simple language.
What is in the knowledge base?
- All posts and articles that appear on the site.
- All the books of Rabbi Michael Avraham.
- There is online access to the responsa.
Technical recommendation (important):
- It is highly recommended to work with the GPT-5 Thinking model for the best answers. Fast models like the regular GPT-5 have difficulty handling the large amount of material. The model is available to premium users only.
- If the option “Get a quick answer” or “Skip” appears, it is better not to select it to allow the thinking process to complete its normal course.
- Currently, OpenAI does not support the GPT-5 Thinking model in the mobile app, so those who log in via mobile must log in via the regular mobile browser to Chatgpt.com, select the GPTs option, and search for the bot called “מיכי-בוט” there. Below is a link to a video tutorial for logging in from mobile.
- Those who do not have access to the powerful GPT-5 Thinking model are welcome to experiment with it and send questions to the email below and I will respond.
- Anyone who has difficulty connecting or configuring a specific model for the bot is welcome to contact the email listed below for support.
How to get more out of it:
- Ask him to think deeply.
- Write focused questions and ask for references to sources.
- It is possible (and recommended) to continue the conversation—asking clarifications/follow-up questions; this improves the answers.
- You can request an exact quote + a link to the article/book where the idea appears.
- One can ask for a comparison between his positions in different columns or throughout books.
Important clarifications:
- The response is not the rabbi’s “official position.” This is a computer reconstruction made by a large language model from all of his writings, and not a direct quote or reference by the rabbi.
- An halakha should not be ruled on the basis of the bot’s answers.
For comments/comments/suggestions about the bot, you can send an email to orenmarg@gmail.com.
Good luck, and fruitful use!
I would like to add here a big thank you to Shmuel Gabay for the initiative and to him and Oren Margalit for the execution.
