On the subject of LLMs and cats, I continue to find it disappointing that if you search for one of the leading AI services in the Apple App Store that they all seem to have centralized on images of cats in their first app screenshot as the most-converting image in that setting

Edit: a quick re-search shows they’ve differentiated a bit. But why are cats just the lowest common denominator? As someone who is allergic to them any cat reference immediately falls flat (personal problem, I know).
