Last Call for Tomorrow’s Seminar

I just nabbed a Bingo Card from Singularity Night at Bingo One. This post-singularity timeline is a whirlwind – tech innovations popping off faster than microwave popcorn. Picture a society where superintelligent AIs churn out breakthroughs like a factory line – no, scratch that, way faster. Humans? We're spectators in the front row, watching the future unfold at light speed.

So there I was, dabber in hand, in a musty hall echoing with bingos and gasps. Each square on this card represents a real-time tech miracle. One square? First robotic-humanoid Olympics are held. Another? AI just composed an opera so beautiful it made the robotic bartender weep oil tears.

The vibe? Imagine a race where humans are in those toddler push cars, and tech's in a Formula 1 speedster. Every dab on the Bingo card was a reminder of our quaint human limitations in this AI-driven utopia.

This Bingo night, it's not just a game. It's a live feed of humanity's obsolescence – and we're cheering with every square. Back home, we're still fumbling with smartphones and bragging about satellite internet. Here? They've moved past physical devices; thoughts stream directly into the cloud, or whatever fancier thing they've got.

Winning Bingo here doesn't get you a toaster or a gift card. It gets you a glimpse into the next big thing, for about a nanosecond before the AIs roll out something new. Gotta say, it's a wild ride – like watching evolution in fast-forward with popcorn in one hand and a dabber in the other.

Here’s a high res bingo card for my paid subs if you want to play along.
