Speaking of goats…
That’s actually funny.

Day 1 of posting a random meme from my collection
They crave that mineral
These goats always fascinated me. Like what the actual fuck? Why? Then when they eventually do make a mistake and fall they just like hop down the side of the mountain and/or tumble 100m they just hop right back up like nothing ever happened.
The razor’s edge of evolutionary advantage in predator/prey relationships makes for some pretty interesting scenarios.
Most of the times they won’t hop right back up, I think, but these educational videos about animals target children so it won’t be such a good idea to show fucked up goats or other animals.
Imagine you are a animal videographer and have to film dozens of goats falling to their death just to get one which miraculously survived.
What’s with lemmings trying to have me imagine bad stuff? 🙁
I mean… the alternative exists…
From a natural selection perspective I don’t think many goats die by falling.
not anymore
Correct, they die from the fatal effects of hitting the ground.
No, they die by being pushed off the cliff by a Golden Eagle.
I mean it’s not the falling that gets them. It’s the abrupt stop on the rocks below.
Is it just me or does the first image look like AI?
Pretty sure it’s just the tilt-shift effect giving that impression, goats can climb basically anything short of a perfect 90 degree angle.
E: actually AI edit of a real photo
Yeah but what is that second goat in the background doing?
Plus, 2nd image, the poses don’t match the incline, and 3rd image the heads and tails are weird
First image is literally 7 years old. You can investigate the others to prove they’re AI if you really want, but I’m not chasing down every false alarm.
As I replied elsewhere, wrong, the first image is clearly derived from a 7 year old image but is not that image. This is AI garbage.
Sleeping on the side?
Could also be climbing and at a funny angle, could be licking minerals (a common reason for goats to climb).
I can’t imagine there’s a lot of training data for mountain goats, especially climbing at weird angles, which is part of why I think this likely isn’t AI generated.
Does no one know how to enlarge images anymore? This is clearly AI slop, just zoom in on them it is painfully obvious as the
- background goat in the first photo has no head and is stuck in the wall up to their shoulders.
- both goats in the second image have extra horns or a leg tail or some random white fluff coming out of their face
- both goats in the third image are just approximations of goats blurred together
All of this is nonsense, because it’s a 7 year old image. (Does nobody know how to reverse image search anymore?)
You are not as good at being an image detective as you think.
Wrong again! The image you linked is not the first image, but clearly is the source of the training for the AI image.
See
- different goat face position, eye, colouring
- missing goats at the bottom left of the image
- completely different cliff face
Since these deficiencies are obvious and anyone can see them, that leaves Lemmings to ask, why are you defending this? Are you
- trolling?
- karma farming?
- a bot?
Cause your defence of this is as fake as the AI images in the meme and muddies the waters, supporting breaking Rule 5 of this community. Why do you support AI slop when it is against the rules?
I’m a guy on my phone with one good eye doing my best to see what I’m looking at. You could have taken the opportunity to consider there are people not looking at this with 4k on a giant screen, but calling me a bot for thinking those were the same image on a phone is probably more reasonable 🙄
Since it is slop, yeah, mods should delete it. Go through my post history if you want to see how much of an AI stan I am, lmao.
I’m scared as fuck of heights but once in a while I torment myself watching videos of Alex Honnold, a freak of a human being who likes to do shit like free soloing El Cap. Watching him do crazy shit is actually kind of soothing, except for one time when he finished a climb on a slope like what these goats are on. It was basically like steps about 1" deep and a foot high; nothing to grab onto, he just had to stay leaned slightly in to the wall to keep from falling off. And I guess hope no wind sprung up. Just terrifying.
Try the french spiderman.
It’s funny, I’ve watched Honnold rip on that guy. He (Honnold) considered climbing buildings to be way easier than cliff climbing because it’s basically the same move over and over again. But now Honnold is doing the same shit.
I’ve done some climbing before (with ropes) and it’s kinda fun being in a slab like that where you can lean in and not always need to have a hand on the wall. But fuck that guy and no ropes. Even watching recorded videos of him doing things makes me incredibly nervous and uncomfortable. I don’t think we should be encouraging what he does the way we do.
It’s ok, he’ll only fail once.
They crave the salt
[I was probably wrong, disregard]
I’ve seen these images well before LLMs were around.
What makes you say AI? I’ve seen 2 of these before and I don’t see anything indicating AI on the one I haven’t.
But… this is older than AI?[Also wrong, disregard too]
I was probably wrong
You were not, I was.
Nah someone else linked the original image: https://www.reddit.com/r/Goatparkour/comments/bto7j1/from_this_angle_mountain_goats_are_even_more/
It’s like some weird AI regeneration of it or something?
Goats were always AI. You didn’t think they were real, did you?
That’s ibex tho. Alpine mountain goats.
I really wish they wouldn’t do that. :(
Sometimes one falls down, but that’s rare.
Just come down here and hang out with the rest of us. You’ll be safer. :(
But they crave the elECtroLytEs.
It’s what plants crave!
It is good for them.
Not from snow leopards they won’t.
A fine addition to my collection
I reject your
