This looks like the same image at a glance, but like atomicbocks said, it's only proof of the plagiarism in the image generator. It spit out something very close to the original, but the proportions are off.
Here I've cropped it as close as I could get it to the OP's and bridged the last gap with G'Mic morph.
(Animated webp, I can confirm Jerboa doesn't support it.)
God, the proportions of the original head and hands are so much better.
It's not something I would have properly noticed without the morph, I thought they actually were the same, but there was something about the original that felt more... bunny like?
It's like when sound designers add stuff they know people won't actually hear, but which definitely alters the "taste" of the sound.
Yeah, I was surprised too, I really thought the crop was going to line up. I ended up getting the nose and the watch as close as possible, but as you can see the head needed to be squashed into a little gremlin face.
That's wild
That’s not the same nose and the spots are gone. All this really tells me is that image was used to train.
It's been AI upscaled, that's why the linework looks so funky.
Edit: no, see my reply to wugmeister
Just so you know this was not an accusatory message or stating anything, I was just pointing out a feeling that meme gave me
To all the people saying it's "AI slop", it's not. This image is on a blog from 2014.

At least run it through a reverse image search before making any accusations.
ETA: Higher resolution image from 2016 here
They don’t look the same and it doesnt look like differences that can be explained by photoshop.
not the same image, but op's image is an ai upscale of the one you linked. the tells are
- the background is red instead of white
- the pattern on the sleeves is similar, but different.
- the original is flipped horizontally, and the upscale doesn't know that, so it tries to "fix" the numbers of the pocketwatch, turning the flipped "IX" into... "N"
The reverse image search spotted it well, but it isn't the same image. It's very likely the source where the image generator got its ideas from though: https://lemmy.world/post/31578519/17746077
Happy cake day!
Didn't even notice!
Well, now you know!
You have 3 wishes, as indicated by the candle.
In Germany we say "dreiviertel acht" or "three quarter eight". This will irrationally enrage people from Northern Germany.
Noooo only Berliners say it like that, and as a northern light it enrages me as I have to convert it to a more sensical time format.
It’s a thing in Bavaria as well. I’m trying to erase it from my vocabulary because I hate it too.
Would ppl from Northern Germany say that was 6? That would be my way of calculating 3 quarter 8 :)
Hungary has the same system. Or "half five" actually being 16:30. It's been hella fun getting used to "half five" meaning 17:30. Constant confusion.
In Dutch you get fun stuff like 16.35 being vijf over half vijf, being 5 past half five. I'm sure German is similar in that regard.
7:15 is a quarter till half past 7:00.
7:52 is half past a quarter to 8
Ah, good ole decimal time.
Still better than quarter of.
What time is a "Quarter of 10"?
I could see it as 10:15, 9:45, 9:15, or 2:30. It's stupid, and anybody who uses it is wrong.
A quarter of 10 would be 7:50.
(10-25%)
That's a quarter off ten. An all too common mistake.
I would have intuitively said that it's 2.5.
I'll see myself out.
The tenth hour of the day goes from 9:00 to 10:00.
So quarter of ten is 9:15. I don't know how one would explain the other possibilities, but this is the correct answer.
Imagine it as a glass of water that gets filled for each hour. Once it is full, the hour has been reached.
Wtf is 7:75? That would be 8:15. Quarter to eight is 7:45.
Or am I just super old and whooshing on the joke? Maybe it's an AI equivalent of eight fingers or two left hands?
Yep, you wooshed the joke. Hint: ¾=75%
Well yes duh 75% is ¾ that much I got. So I guess the joke is AI wouldn't, because it hasn't learned to tell time, just as it's not sure about fingers...
You brought rationality to an irrational topic. How dare you
Last year, a middle aged gentleman stopped me on the street to ask me what time it was. I told him "half past one and ten minutes." Just came naturally to me (I also wear an analog watch, so never really can tell the exact minute). I still remember the confused look on his face, and I imagine he's been working really hard to convert it into minutes. That made me self-conscious about saying the time, and I noticed I never say time in the hours-minutes format. My kids will be the same, as long as they pick up this habit from me rather than videos and movies.
Why do old people say that shit? They expect me to do math every time? Side note, I an American recently switched to using a 24 hour clock. It's way better.
The AI could at least draw the watch correcting to the "joke"
