Well, on the "bright" side, all but 2 of the striked ones are either explicitly AI generated art (the 3 Adobe Stock ones, 2 from freepik, and the 1 from Instagram) or about noting the images aren't real (the 2 Snopes and the 1 in the bottom left calling out the feet).

On the sad side the TikTok and YouTube ones that likely led to all of this aren't labeled and are present, not to mention the complete lack of "I want the AI things automatically filtered, I'm not interested in trends I'm searching for actual things right now" button. Without something like that it will become harder to use Google to find new content.

I mean people obviously like the content, it's cute enough to get shared around so much to make itself popular in these images and to trigger the post on X about it. Nothing wrong with that... but if it's not easily filterable for what the user is actually trying to find then Google has somewhat failed at its goal.
