centaur = brain of a man, speed of a horse.
reverse centaur = brain of a horse, speed of a man.

substitute horse with ai.

Over a long enough distance, men can outrun a horse. Especially in heat.

[–] sundray@lemmus.org 58 points 1 week ago (4 children)

Who’s in heat, the horse or the man?

[–] random_character_a@lemmy.world 34 points 1 week ago (2 children)

I don't like where this is going, but I approve it.

[–] NoSpotOfGround@lemmy.world 13 points 1 week ago (1 children)

I put on my harness and horse-ears hat...

Have you ever tried running with a boner? You wear out quickly.

What is that black ball that falls on the right side?

[–] sundray@lemmus.org 1 points 1 week ago (1 children)

That's weird, I have no idea. I didn't see it on my phone screen, but yeah I see it now on my laptop.

[–] SpaceNoodle@lemmy.world 25 points 1 week ago (1 children)

I think the bigger question is why the man is running after a horse in heat. That is not how you make a centaur.

[–] lime@feddit.nu 16 points 1 week ago

not with that attitude

[–] onion_dude@lemmy.world 5 points 1 week ago

Ooooh! I've got a thing for this:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Man_versus_Horse_Marathon

My friend runs it each year. His pictures are nuts

[–] morto@piefed.social 3 points 1 week ago

But with a horse brain?

[–] ssladam@lemmy.world 1 points 1 week ago

Practically, better described as endurance, although technically correct.

[–] mcv@lemmy.zip 19 points 1 week ago

Good practical examples are the car driver vs the Amazon driver. When you drive a car, you go where you want, but at the superhuman speed of a car. The Amazon driver has a computer telling them where to go, how to drive there, and even cameras to watch if you drive according to Amazon's rules. The driver has become the extension of the computer, instead of the other way around. That's a reverse centaur.
