In front of a swirly, metallic, blue and pink background, black-and-white digitized hands enter the image holding smartphones. Top row, from left to right: a screen with a tiny computer in a seashell with mint green insides, atop a pink, motherboard-like background; a screen with the OpenAI logo atop a blue, pink, and yellow ombre lightbulb; a screen with an anonymous San Francisco 49ers player taking his helmet off, with a warning sign and text under saying “SCAM ALERT,” atop a pink background. Bottom row, from left to right: a screen interspersed with large speakers, blue and purple AI star logos, and static-y glitches, atop a gridded green background; a screen with a birds-eye view of a person tending to a garden plot, overlapped with a play video icon and Instagram like icons. The text "Close All Tabs" appears in white text in the upper right corner.
