    The creature by the left hand is not a cat, we figured.

    I have no idea if their text is AI-generated. Emdashes are used by real humans who write, too.

      Emdashes are used by real humans who write, too.

      I had actually never heard of emdashes until the whole AI thing and I just used hyphens instead. Now I’m embarrassed by my earlier ignorance and use emdashes – and people think I’m an AI. I do put spaces on each side of them which I think is incorrect, at least.

      Why is there no mention of the mysterious 6th creature who is being held by the human in the article?

      “All cats and the AI generated rabbit—dog hybrid cuddled up with mom after she has surgery”?

        My theory is that it’s a dog that’s always by her side, so it wasn’t as newsworthy as 5 cats who are usually off by themselves.

          That’s messed up. So screw the loyal dog-rabbit, but praise the cats for a one off event?
