I've been experiencing repeated kernel panics on my 2015 Macbook Pro. Sometimes the fans start spinning really loudly before the panic, sometimes not. Sometimes the screen jut goes black, sometimes it glitches in crazy ways (see picture).
I've taken the MacBook to a repair shop and they've looked at it four times(!), each time insisting that nothing is wrong with the hardware and that they can't replicate the error.
Here are the two latest panic logs:
