The thing that jumps out for me is the huge pupils. Cats only get that if its low light, they're targeting something, or drugs. If they were targeting something then there is a massive mismatch between their posture and body language and their pupil dilation.

On the other hand, generative AI know that humans find large pupils on animals cute and is more likely to spit out an image of a cat with dilated pupils.

My money is on AI slop ๐Ÿ™
