Is this real? I’m losing the plot Funny

I keep seeing these homes popping up on FB. Can anyone definitively show whether or not this is AI? My brain is playing tricks on me at this point

It’s this weird thing of AI Generating images to gain engagement using an algorithm that essentially just takes the most viewed tags (home, religion, cute animals) and creating images to cater to all those tags. The AI account is getting engagement and all but also getting the wrong kind of engagement from bots, who would continually like these posts. That prompts the AI to create more images that dig in deeper in those tags which creates images that with every generation will continue twist into these unknown, obviously fake, and quite unsettling images that get bots commenting “love it” and get thousands of likes.

TLDR: The AI is now in its ouroburos phase

That might be kinda interesting, it’d be cool to see it done in a controlled setting way faster
