The Cellar / AI or AI collateral damage

Is this an AI image? This is the worst drawing I have ever seen.
This was the thumbnail for a published article. They thought this was ready for the press.

Is it possible that, given the choice of a free, AI image, they paid an intern $5 to draw this?

The girls' arms are crossing. each has an arm around the man's neck. the arm on the left (right gir's arm) seems a bit too big, but otherwise makes sense spatially. I guess human.

Each girl has one arm that's about a foot long and the opposite arm is about 4 feet long.

Or there’s a third girl in the middle whose head is obscured by his head. Something an AI might come up with to mess with human minds.

I see it as outer arms folded and inner arms extended. Left girl's outer elbow is down, right girl's outer elbow is pointed back. Right girl's inner arm is a bit bigger than I would expect, but not egregiously so, in my view.

Tried for a pic search. Got this. As bad as yours.

That's a major star of book and film.

I'm glad to see that there is still humor in the world today.

I haven't read any of the Captain Underpants books, but my nephews and niece are crazy for the Dogman books by the same author. They are amusing. They have the potty humor one may expect from the author of Captain Underpants, but are also occasionally clever or insightful.
