...this is AI generated

• The green hat which is missing an earhole would smash the ear flat, not come up to a point

• green hat cat has really short whiskers for just this photo? Why?

• all cats are missing eyebrow whiskers?

• there is not a single stray cat hair on the outside of any of the hats

My friend does crochet and a huge problem in the hobby right now are AI slop patterns that are being sold on craft sites that "don't work" because they are AI generated. Its a plague for them, and this looks like an AI "sample image" for one of these patterns. Or, it could be a real pattern with a slop image, but these projects rarely turn out as depicted.
