Love it when a new filipamv post drops

Join me in building a better future:

I've noticed some of my old @signal.org groups suddenly getting new banner photos out of nowhere that seem AI generated.

Is this happening to anyone else? Is @signal.org running some kind of AI experiment or are different unrelated friends trolling me at once?
