On 29 September 2026, CEO of parent company Vercel Guillermo Rauch posted a photo of himself with Israeli PM Netanyahu, with the caption:
“Enjoyed my discussion with PM Netanyahu on how AI education and literacy will keep our free societies ahead. We spoke about AI empowering everyone to build software and the importance of ensuring it serves quality and progress. Optimistic for peace, safety, and greatness for Israel and its neighbors.”
This post comes 700+ days since the beginning of the genocide in Gaza, and merely weeks after the UN’s Independent International Commission of Inquiry declared that Israel has been committing genocide.
