A new internet trend has seen owners create adorable photos of their dogs cooking up a storm using ChatGPT.
There has been a rise in popularity of using AI to create viral images, from turning your dog into a human, to turning yourself or your pet into an action figure.
Now, pets of all shapes and sizes are modeling photoshoots in the kitchen: cooking dinner and baking treats, as a new trend takes flight online.
What Is the Trend of Prints of Pets Cooking Meals?
Social-media sites including TikTok and Instagram have been flooded with posts, usually first showing a normal photo of their dog, followed by shots of the animal taking control in the kitchen.
In one, shared by TikTok user @larisaatkin, a puppy kneads dough to make bread, shakes up cocktails, and prepares dinner in the kitchen.
And it is not just confined to kitchen photoshoots. One, shared by @delaney.barnes, shows her black Labrador retriever in the bathroom: covered in suds from the bath, brushing its teeth, and reading the newspaper on the toilet.

Instructions: How to Convert a Pet Photo Into a Kitchen Photo Shoot by Using AI
Go to chatgpt.com and log in, or sign up to create an account for free.
Upload a photo of your dog in the chat bar, and ask, as an example: "Please make a photo shoot of this exact dog doing different activities in the kitchen: baking, making cocktails, and cooking dinner. Make it photo-realistic, as if it was done by a photographer."
Make sure to give the chatbot as specific a prompt as possible, to avoid the photo shoot coming out with a different dog, or as a cartoon rather than a photograph.
The bot will begin generating the images, which may take some time.
Once the photo shoot has been generated, save and download the image and share it across social media.
How to View the AI Dog Kitchen Photo Shoot Trend Online
You can view the AI dog kitchen photo shoot trend online by searching "AI dog photo shoot" on TikTok. On Instagram, to see different forms of the trend, search #dogbathroomart to see pups having baths and reading the paper on the toilet.
Some users, such as TikTok user @merideth.rutledge, have printed out the results of the AI photo shoot, and framed them to place around their home.
Others, such as @curator.collectiv, have gone even further, and showed their dogs on vacation across the world: skiing in Aspen, in front of the Eiffel Tower in Paris, and even exploring the planet Mars.
What Is ChatGPT?
ChatGPT is a popular large language model (LLM) artificial intelligence tool. Created by OpenAI, it launched in November 2022, and its most-recent version, 4.5, was launched in February 2025.
It can be used to answer questions, have a conversation, or create images such as the pet photo shoot, dog-to-human photos, and transforming photos into cartoons.
ChatGPT, along with other LLMs such as Google's Gemini and Microsoft's Copilot, has been criticized for the large amount of energy it uses to power, with concerns raised about the environmental impact that comes with the rise in popularity of AI.

Princess Charlotte's Big Sister Moments Go Viral
Based on facts, either observed and verified firsthand by the reporter, or reported and verified from knowledgeable sources. Newsweek AI is in beta. Translations may contain inaccuracies—please refer to the original content. Princess Charlotte acting like a royal boss with her brothers Prince George and Prince Louis went viral on TikTok. The 10-year-old has carved out a formidable reputation as the unofficial royal "boss" during high-profile royal events where the cameras were watching the Wales family's every move. Prince George is the direct heir to the throne, destined to one day be king, but a fan of Charlotte compiled moments when she showed just how much of a support she can be. Prince Louis, right, and Princess Charlotte alongside Prince George on Christmas Day at Sandringham, England, on December 25, 2022. Prince Louis, right, and Princess Charlotte alongside Prince George on Christmas Day at Sandringham, England, on December 25, 2022. Samir Hussein/WireImage The Context The video was liked 35,500 times and viewed 299,000 times having been posted with the on screen caption: "Although Charlotte is not the eldest ... she is definitely the authority in the Wales family. "Whenever the three children appear, it's clear that Prince George and Prince Louis both value Charlotte's opinion." What To Know The clip includes pictures of Prince Louis gazing up adoringly at his older sister during a walkabout at the royal family's Christmas Day walk to church in 2022. A later clip showed her telling Louis when to stop waving during the carriage procession at Trooping the Colour, in June that same year. The young prince was enthusiastically greeting royal fans at the start Queen Elizabeth II's Platinum Jubilee celebrations when Charlotte reached over to pull his hand down. And she stepped in again days later when Louis appeared to be biting his nails as they watched the Platinum Jubilee Pageant, which sought to tell the story of he late monarch's reign using artists, dancers and performers. Louis had been in a restless mood, though melted hearts all the same, while Charlotte felt the need to introduce some etiquette as the pair sat one row in front of then British Prime Minister Boris Johnson. And at Trooping the Colour in 2024, Charlotte nudged Prince Louis to remind him to stand up straight as they watched a fly-past by the Royal Air Force from the balcony of Buckingham Palace. It is not just Louis, however, as the edit ends with a moment in which Charlotte appeared to make her feelings known to George during a moment away from the service for Elizabeth's funeral in September 2022. Charlotte's natural leadership has left many comparing her to Elizabeth, her great, grand mother. While George may one day wear the crown, it seems he—and the rest of the Wales household—will always have Charlotte to help keep things running smoothly. What People Are Saying One fan replied: "She hasn't been doing it as much because she knows she needs to let Prince George take the spotlight after his father."

After 20 Years, Woman Finds Lost Wedding Ring in the Spot She Always Suspected (Exclusive)
Dana Popham lost her wedding ring in the family bathroom 20 years ago — and never gave up hope it was still there During a recent renovation, she filmed the powerful moment she discovered the ring under a cabinet, where she'd long suspected it was stuck The TikTok video struck a chord with viewers, symbolizing faith, resilience and a new chapter for her close-knit familyWhen Dana Popham pressed record on her phone for a TikTok, she had no idea she was about to reunite with a piece of her past she'd quietly mourned for two decades. Her video, simply captioned 'I lost my wedding ring 20 years ago... and today I found it,' quickly went viral as viewers watched her rediscover the symbol of her marriage. 'I have four kids, and at the time they were 7, 6, 2 and 7 months old. So life was just crazy,' Dana tells PEOPLE, recalling the hectic morning she lost her ring in the family bathroom. She remembers searching everywhere, convinced it was somewhere in that room, but as the hours turned to years, the ring seemed to be gone for good. Still, Dana never let go of a quiet feeling that her ring might have slipped beneath the bathroom cabinet in a spot that seemed impossible to reach. 'All these years I thought there was a 0.00001% chance that it was under that cabinet,' she says, explaining how she once even poked her phone through a tiny gap in the wood, hoping for a glimpse of gold, but nothing turned up, and life moved on. It wasn't until a recent renovation that the improbable became possible. 'I told my husband, I said, 'If we tear that cabinet out, I'm setting up a camera just in case that ring is underneath there.' And that's exactly how it happened,' Dana shares, still in awe of the moment she captured on video. As the cabinet came free, there it was: her original wedding ring, nestled in dust and memories, waiting to be found. Dana describes the moment as overwhelming. 'I felt like every ounce of hope that I've ever had, I felt it in my gut and in the reality of just all that emotion coming together, it was overwhelming. I was so happy,' she says. After the initial loss 20 years ago, Dana did what many would do: she improvised. 'I immediately went online and just ordered a fake ring. Like, I am married, I have four children, I'm going to order a fake ring. So I did a fake cubic zirconia, whatever,' she says with a laugh. Years later, her husband bought her a new wedding set, but nothing could replace the sentimental value of the original. 'I was 19 years old. He was 21, we were broke. I mean, this ring's maybe a little less than half a carat. It's 'little,' but it's so sweet and means so much,' Dana reflects. Even with a newer set, her heart always longed for the ring she chose as a teenager. The rediscovery comes at a poignant time for Dana and her family. 'We will be celebrating 31 years this year. We had our vow renewal last year on the beach,' she shares. The ring's return feels like a blessing as her family enters a new chapter: three of her four children are now married, with her youngest preparing for their nuptials later this year, and the house is undergoing a transformation of its own. 'To think about it makes me teary,' Dana admits. 'Because now my kids are 27, 26, 23 and 20, and when you raised a family in the same house and we've had ups, we've had downs. Our family is super close.' 'And so for me, it holds even a special place because that ring was there all along. Even though the ring is a ring, it's a metal, but still it's like it was there all along when life was happening all around it,' she adds, reflecting on the decades of family life that unfolded around her lost treasure. The symbolism isn't lost on Dana, especially as she and her husband embrace a new season as empty nesters. 'There's a whole season of renewal that's happening after 31 years of us being married. My kids are out of the nest. It just represents life, the memories, the hard work, and it just seems like God was like, 'I'm just going to gift this back to you as you and your husband start this next chapter,' ' she shares. The viral TikTok resonated with viewers, many of whom reached out with messages of hope and admiration. To Dana, the story was a reminder to stay hopeful. 'This experience has taught me to not to give up. I couldn't explain the sliver of hope that one day I would find that ring, and I think some of that just has to do with my faith,' she shares. 'I felt like at some point God had promised that one day I would see that ring again, and I did not know how or what or when, but just every time we would do a big clean-out of the house — or we did put our house on the market six years ago and it didn't sell — and I just always felt like at some point that ring was going to come back to me somehow some way because it never made sense how it just vanished,' she continues.

'I have not taken it off my hand. It is on my hand with my wedding band that my husband bought after. I still have my original wedding band that I would wear. I'm so happy it still fits,' Dana says with a smile. The experience, she says, feels like another new beginning. 'Our life has just been consumed with life and busyness, and so it's been there, but I think that's part of the beauty of this new chapter that we're just starting," she shares. "It's just like a renewal. I literally felt like I had just gotten engaged again.' Read the original article on People

Denver zoo closes early over the weekend to prevent wild teens from pulling off TikTok-inspired ‘takeover' trend
The Denver Zoo closed early on Saturday ahead of a planned teen 'takeover' of the park that went viral on TikTok as part of an alarming trend among youths that is wreaking havoc in public spaces across the country. Zoo staff decided to shutter the park to prevent the so-called 'takeover' before it could happen. They weren't entirely sure what the coup they put a stop to would've looked like, but knew they didn't want to see a repeat of others that have cropped up around the country this summer. Advertisement The Denver Zoo closed early on Saturday ahead of a planned teen 'takeover' of the park that went viral on TikTok as part of an alarming trend among youths that is wreaking havoc in public spaces across the country. AP 'We don't know the exact nature of the event, but we know previous events organized in a similar fashion have led to some disruption to local businesses, damage, vandalism, things like that,' zoo spokesperson Jake Kubie told KUSA. 'We don't believe we're a target of anything. We haven't received any information that suggests that there is gonna be any impact to us. We're always leaning towards caution over everything else.' Advertisement Last weekend, one of the planned events took Denver's Northfield Mall by storm as more than 300 unruly teenagers descended onto the property and started fighting each other following a call-out to meet at the shopping center on TikTok. Following the early closure, zoo staff were still on high alert, but no one showed. Still, other community advocates and police spent the rest of their Saturday afternoon patrolling around Denver's City Park in the sweltering heat just to be extra cautious.

Denver Post via Getty Images Advertisement Across the country on the East Coast, Garden State teenagers haven't been on their best behavior either. In just one week, two separate TikTok-fueled pop-ups spurred hundreds of teens to shut down a mall and a carnival that were mere miles apart. In Edison, New Jersey, more than 300 youth turned the Menlo Park Mall into their personal playground, forcing innocent shoppers to take shelter inside stores as fights started breaking out. The following week, another takeover destroyed a carnival in a mall parking lot just 2.5 short miles away from the Edison site. The carnival had tried to impose an 18-and-up limit for after-hours, but the teenagers weren't having it and started scaling fences to get inside.
