Anyone else in IT, or I guess other fields since windows is so widespread, experience a bug on the Outlook app where a jpeg logo in someone’s signature has been altered to a similar photo?

Today I had a client show me an email on his phone, he sent it, it displayed a logo for another real estate company, but not his. This was only visible on the app, not on his PC, and anyone else receiving the email saw the correct photo.

Solution was to uninstall the app (and delete it’s data) and reinstall it.

What I think happened is some kind of AI spillage. It’s the only thing that makes any sense, especially because of the similarity between the photos, both being real estate companies. Another person within this same company has the bug too, same way, but a separate photo of yet another real estate company. It’s also worth noting that the link that sits under the photo was still correctly linking to the correct company although it showed another companies logo.

Anyone else have an explanation of what it could be?

This very well could be proof that they do in fact have zero control over what Copilot is referencing/doing in certain scenarios and could be problematic for people that work in law firms, hospitals, security, etc.
