Be careful what you wish for.
Quality control doesn’t come from AI
To me, AI means artificial insemination!
(but these days it has taken on a very different meaning)
Recently I put in a prompt asking for an image which showed the bond between horse and man. It was super bad.
So I asked it to show me pics with the tack removed.
This is what I got!
Take a close look.
It is so scary that you have to laugh.
AI seems incapable of giving what you want, at least when it comes to horses.
Nothing will replace the human element.

Did you know?
We all know that horses can sleep standing up, usually with a back leg resting, due to its “ligament-locking” system.
However, they can only get their important REM sleep (the dream phase) whilst lying down. This can be quite funny to observe, as they will make noises, neighs and grunts, and “gallop” in their sleep.
Sleep deprivation in horses is a “thing.”
Just watch them after a bad weather event. As soon as they feel safe, they will lie down to rest and make up for lost sleep. They will usually sleep in a bunch with one watching over the rest. If he feel safe, the watchman will oftentimes lie down too.
Importantly, have a soft place for your horses to sleep. Give them a sand patch if necessary. Without their own soft space, they simply won’t lie down, and they will dig the ground, bare it, in attempts to create their own spot.
Horses on cement, rocky or hard/bare ground are most at risk of sleep deprivation.
