Take the "seahorse sticker or emoji-style image" part.

It's the exact same words. It is quite specific phrasing. There's no other result on the web for this.

It's not only this part, the whole thing feels very similar, just with more confidence and in a sublty different order.

When the set of ideas and the phrasing are this similar without citing the source, I call this plagiarism.

Now, it could be that the emojipedia page is AI slop, but then the AI would seem to have invented this specific phrasing, which I would find unlikely.

It could also be that the UI shows citations but they don't survive copy-paste.
