Emily Hand, a 10-year-old former hostage who was released during the November 2023 ceasefire, tells the Histadrut Labor Federation’s Ashmoret conference for education and innovation that her “dreams are not always good ones.”
500 ימים למלחמה בוועידת אשמורת של הסתדרות המורים: אמילי הנד, בת 10, ששוחררה משבי חמאס, עמדה על הבמה ודיברה עם הצ'אט (בינה מלאכותית): "עוד לא חזרתי לבית שלי… עוד לא כולם חזרו הביתה בשלום… ויש כאלו שאף פעם לא יחזרו… והחלומות שלי … לא תמיד טובים… אז איך אפשר בכלל לחשוב… pic.twitter.com/ZyyP8Pb2AQ

On stage during an appearance in which she is supposed to imagine the future, Hand seemingly converses with Chat GPT, telling the AI software: “I miss my kibbutz, my friends, and the people we lost.”
“I haven’t returned to my house yet. Not everyone has returned home safely yet, and some will never return,” she writes.
“And my dreams are not always good ones, so how can you even think about tomorrow?” she asks.
Hand’s appearance ends with her shouting: “You can’t think about tomorrow without bringing everyone back!”
Hand was kidnapped from her home in Kibbutz Be’eri on October 7, 2023, during the Hamas-led attack and massacres, and was released 50 days later during the November 2023 hostage deal.
