Once they have that much care and thought, then they probably would have the thought of asking the art teacher or art students to do something vaguely meaningful.

Something like this should have more thought and intent behind it than "let's just ask AI to do it"

or they could get a human artist that understands life to do it.

Never mind that extra hand, wtf is the otter holding?

How can i show that i don't actually care, but have people say, "it's the thought that counts? “

It's something you can do, whether the AI will do it is another matter
