A "Showerthought" is a simple term used to describe the thoughts that pop into your head while you're doing everyday things like taking a shower, driving, or just daydreaming. The best ones are thoughts that many people can relate to and they find something funny or interesting in regular stuff.

A talking, snitching horse would be so much more interesting than a super advanced car. Assuming this were a new development. Could the horse bridge the communication gap with the natural world and foster peace between humans and earth? Or would the horse be pretentious and look down on lesser beings? Would the horse get overwhelmed by celebrity influencer status and die alone in a field, drunk and poisoned by rotten oats?
I think the horse would be a hero of friendship and karate for everyone. And it would be an omniscient snitch.
Its just an analogy, imagine you take your horse for a health check up and the insurance company directly asks the horse about your riding habits
Well if the horse could talk, then a vet definitely should ask it if it's been mistreated. Don't take it too seriously, I was just riffing.
