The only thing that seems off to me is the phone, and maybe the blurriness of the dog, but the phone is quite jarring
What is off about the phone? That's an iPhone 4, from the before times.
The position is sitting looks off for one. I know phones are light and we don't know how fluffy the couch is, but it doesn't seem to "sink" into the blanket at all. It also looks like it should be sliding down the couch at the spot it's at, especially with the dog on the couch.
The lighting also looks weird, like why is 3/4 of the screen dark like its in a shadow and the other 1/4 is bright, while the whole phone is sitting in a bright spot from the window? There doesn't seem to be a shadow coming from it either
The dog image was stolen off Facebook. Reddit applied AI upscaling and added the phone to make it a "waiting for your call" template.
Mystery solved! Knew it looked weird. Thanks
Yea it's just the phone is so weird. Usually I see whiskers merging with AI images but the whiskers seem to be fine in this one. Maybe it's a real dog image but the phone is AI generated in.
