This was a crosspost from a .ml comm, but reverse image searching it brought me to a 2018 posting, so well before AI image generation: https://www.memedroid.com/memes/detail/2446777/Faites-du-sport

But it looks.... different, maybe this is an AI upscaling?

Probably! Look at this:

  1. The blue mat is broken at a strange place
  2. The cat’s paw merges into the roll holder
  3. The paper mysteriously shrinks into a smaller size
  4. The shadow for one cat is in an entirely different style than all the other shadows. In fact the shadows are quite inconsistent all over.
  5. He’s holding the water bottle from the wrong side

I think it all smells like an image-to-image AI recreation of the original you just posted.

I have now posted the best of the original I could find, though the quality is still meh, at least it's not AI lol
