I recently posted a photo of my cat on Bluesky, as any serious person does on a growing social network. While carefully preparing the post (again, I am serious person) I asked four different LLMs for alt text to include with the photo. They all did okay, but as you can see Claude went pretty hard…

The cat has striking golden-yellow eyes and distinctive black patches around its eyes contrasting with its white fur. The crown sits perched on top of the cat's head and appears to be decorative costume jewelry. The cat has a dignified, regal expression and appears to be resting on what looks like light-colored fabric or bedding. The photo is well-lit and in sharp focus, particularly highlighting the cat's facial features and the intricate details of the pink crown.
