Look at my horse, my horse is amazing

🐴 I drew Muhammad.

I always just wrote this little tale off as “good at reading people”, and honestly that’s still my assumption. After reading Blindsight though, I think it’s a good allegory for possible intelligence without consciousness. What if the horse just has the ability to perform those kind of calculations when incentivized, but has no concept of what it’s actually doing beyond responding to stimulus.

Then again I knew a horse that would recreationally lick electric fences, so probably not that. Interesting thought though.

Calculators are a fucking joke, you can’t even ride them or feed them carrots.

That’s nothing, once I went through the desert on a horse with no name.
