“It’s tricky. But it’s not magic.
“The trick is to design tools which can replace the hands – or most of them.
“But what will we do then with the hands we’ve replaced?
“Have we any thoughts on that one?
“No FT. No comment.”

I lost home access to the FT’s full digital archive when Westminster library cancelled it eight years ago, and this period is missing from Infotrac Newsbank’s capture of the paper, but from the reporting of the same stories in other newspapers on this day it is obvious that the front page in this advert is from Wednesday 9th July 1986.
