If I make a word processor, it doesn't need any stance on the Israel/Palestine conflict. It's just a word processor.
But if I make an LLM, and you prompt it to tell you about the Israel/Palestine conflict? The output will be deeply political, and if it refuses to answer that will also be political
The technology industry does not know what to do because unlike industries like journalism and publishing who are used to engaging with politics, a lot of norms, power structures and people in tech think we're still in the 1990s making word processors, no politics here.
