From the hair and the blur around objects it could be AI generated.
Relevant username!
The background tree is weird...i vote AI generated, and war propaganda, do not like it.
I do find it odd, too. Like, so many things feel off in the photo. Not only the hair and the blur, but the cat is literally posing for the camera, as well as the soldier whom, by the way, looks stunning in their uniform and make-up. I'm not declaring it is AI generated, but I don't think it's a "baseless" proposition.
Anyway, peace for Ukraine and Russia can't come fast enough.
Also the cat doesn't seem to have back legs.
On the other hand, the fur of the cat looks very natural.
I remember seeing other similar pictures. There's really no need to generate it. There's tons of cats around the battlefield since Russia invaded, and there's tons of soldiers, many of them attractive women. It's only a matter of time until a cute cat climbs onto one of the attractive women, and of course that image will be spread around. It could be generated, but there's really no need.
