For a brief moment I thought this would be about something like robotic polo ponies, and considered the idea that four-legged high agility, high endurance robots had advanced significantly without me noticing.
Me too, I guess I don’t think of “replica” and “clone” as synonymous in the context of animals.
Though we are not yet competitive in the Argentinian Polo clone wars, we are making significant progress - https://www.satyress.com/
That'd be alot more ethical than the current horse racing industry if it were the case.
Humans riding racing robots id watch, but not horse racing.
And i thought it was about those polo shirts and replicas of the horse logo on the “fake” t-shirts.
