And does it apply to serrated knives?\nAI and psak:\nIs it halachically proper to rely on AI for halachic rulings? Does a posek need to be human?\nTheoretically, if and when an AI were perfectly accurate, would that change the halachic status of using it for answering shailos?\nWhat are the dangers involved in asking halachic questions to AI?\nBracha on tzitzis:\nWhen is a bracha on tallis katan appropriate, and when should the tallis gadol cover it?\nIs wearing “night tzitzis” a good idea or does it become a kesus lailah (a garment designated for sleeping)?\nWhat is the best way to arrange the rotation of tzitzis to be able to make the bracha every morning?\nIs the interruption of a night’s sleep sufficient to require a new bracha in the morning?\nBirchas kohanim at a chuppah: \nIs a kohen obligated to go up for birchas kohanim when called independent of davening (e.g. at a chuppah)?\nWhy do non-kohanim use the nusach of birchas kohanim when blessing children?","thumbnail_url":"https://img.transistorcdn.com/3yjUxK4ctnSViSNoRJs1n70YSJC3FwrMVpVQRYN5Smo/rs:fill:0:0:1/w:400/h:400/q:60/mb:500000/aHR0cHM6Ly9pbWct/dXBsb2FkLXByb2R1/Y3Rpb24udHJhbnNp/c3Rvci5mbS9kNzFk/ZDFmMTU2ZjhiNGUz/NTZlMjQwNWM3OTRi/ZDVlNC5qcGVn.webp","thumbnail_width":300,"thumbnail_height":300}
