There are actual cats that look like this, so probably it’s real. It certainly doesn’t seem AI generated to me.
GPTs also don’t make images. That’s not what Transformers do, and GPT means Generative Pre-trained Transformer. It’s diffusion models and variational autoencoders that make images.
I don’t think this is AI generated spam. There is apparently a real breed of cat that looks like this. I think you need to be less paranoid, this is lemmy.
You could always put Linux on it. I believe there is a way to do that for most ChromeBooks nowadays.
Wayland isn’t actually a piece of software though. It’s a protocol. This isn’t like X11.
To me it looks like they used a bad camera that’s too soft. That’s all. AI images are often sharper and better looking than this if done using a good enough model and techniques.
