Ooo that's the fun thing though. A horse power isn't the power of one horse, it's how many horses could be replaced by a machine. Sure, two horses could do the job, but a horse can't work all day. You need teams of 6,8,10,12 horses if there's a lot to be done. A horse's outut might be 12 at an instant, but it's not going to be that way constantly like a machine.
(Also some define it as the force needed to lift 550lbs being lifted a foot per second, which is about what a draft horse can do.... Things really got fucky when we got to things like trains and steam power)
Yes and no. The person that introduced the concept of "horse power" used a lot of assumptions and math that really doesn't check out properly based on what his horse could do. I don't remember all of the specifocs but he (with crude equipment) estimated how long it took his horse to pull a bucket 1ft up his well. And "concluded" that an engine with 1ft-lb of torque spinning at 5252 rpm could pull the bucket up at the same rate. Now. Thats a LOT of assumptions and poor testing procedures. However, what we ended up with was not an actual equivalency between a engine and a horse, but rather a metric that we could use to compare the work load performed between engines. And a fun marketing tool for the bean counters
Despite a lot of assumption, the math came within the range of sustained power of a horse. So, it is a decent assumption of average work a workhorse can do continuously. Admittedly, that is a pretty wide range.
It is a VERY loose quantifying system. The theory is that a horse's PEAK horsepower is in the teens but can not be sustained for an entire production cycle. At "one" horsepower, the animal can work indefinitely at the pace with stops only for minimum food and rest.
See, horses became obsolete because cars, so artists will be obsolete, presumably because everyone in the world will only appreciate things at the same bare minimum surface level as prompters who “discovered their talent.”
Maybe AI is driving the car and it’s decorative. The OOP probably placed it according to where he thinks it is in his mom’s car. Probably doesn’t pay much attention when she drives him everywhere.
The horsepower was estimated by goofy old-timey crackpot science ("HOW FAST CAN THIS HORSE TURN THIS WHEEL") for the purpose of marketing steam engines, which were originally made to replace horses on farms and other labor work.
Horsepower measures the rate at which work is done. 1 horsepower is about 740 watts (1 watt is 1 Joule per second.) In 1925 it was estimated that the average sustained work rate of one horse was indeed about 1 horsepower.
That means we have aura, because we are even slightly related to the aura farmer (this is a joke please dont stuff me inside a spring bonnie suit and light it on fire)
Well technically they didn't replace horses. They just made horses less efficient & practical for general transportation. I have quite literally seen people riding on horseback, with a donkey in tow, on the south side of Atlanta off of I-285. Way these gas prices are going, I'm considering buying one of my uncle's horses off him.
The funniest thing about this is that the giga chad is driving backwards. Even if its obviously supposed to be him driving off into the sunset, leaving the horse behind. The ai cant even get that right.
I also love how the car, horse and scenery have this realistic look, generic anime hentai girl has a anime like style and giga chud looks like a realistic depiction of a butch hartman drawing. The supposedly superior "art" tool cant even make everything look like it belongs together.
Genuine question. Why are antis always depicted as far when AI users are typically sitting down generating stuff. Is it "fat" to put effort into stuff instead of sitting in a chair typing in a box?
What a weird flex from whoever wrote the prompt for this. Even if "AI art" ends up winning, removing prompt generators themselves and replacing the whole thing with a closed-circuit AI-to-monetization loop is the obvious next step. Or maybe it already has?

Fun fact horsepower was just a marketing term use to sell tractors. It has no actual relation to the actual power of a horse.
