Looks like a ~'31 Rolls Royce Phantom? Somewhere around 29/30/31/32, after that the styling was different.

I feel like the horse, working for a company that will automate thousands of jobs with AI... and eventually mine as well.

Saw a photo at the local Fire Museum. Circa 1920; firemen were using a horse drawn engine, but the ambulance was a truck.

When this picture was taken, only the well-off could afford a car.
Today, only the well-off can afford a horse.
Tomorrow, we won't be able to afford either.
Only if we accept our future are we bound to it!
