is that person AI gennerated? if yes why?

No, that’s LeVar Burton, a Star Trek TNG actor. He’s just that awesome.

I believe the board he’s holding isn’t even a photoshop, as he advocates for reading banned books IRL. But I can’t find his original post.

If this is AI I’m not even sure it matters. It’s so true and on-brand with him it’s painful. So with that being said I’d really doubt it was fake.

God this comment makes me feel old...

My first thought was that it's an AI generated photo of LeVar Burton. The comment didn't seem like "who is that", more of a "why is this AI?"
