If AI removes the reason many clerical and rule-based jobs existed—not just the tasks—what replaces employment as a source of stability and dignity?
Curious to hear perspectives, especially from those working in government, policy, and large institutions. #AI #FutureOfWork #AIRevolution #TechnologyHistory #AutomationImpact #ClericalWork #PublicSector #Governance #Employment #Productivity #AIReality #HumanInTheLoop

Another plane from that same box.
A Gage Self-Setting Smoothing Plane (1885-1919)Interesting to see what the Betamax-esque competitors to Stanley looked like. Big differences from the Bailey style planes that became the standard.
Didn't want to over-restore it without knowing more, but after dealing with some minor rust and giving it a light cleaning , it appears to be perfectly serviceable. I don't know that I need another smoothing plane at this point, but it's a nice piece of history (and I may have to sharpen the iron and take a few shavings just because).
