English text below Запазете датата! Ще си задаваме занимателни гатанки, ще хапваме премазни гозби от бара и ще спекулираме за бъдещето на човечеството. Този път централната ни тема е изкуственият интелект - но няма да се ограничаваме само до това, а ще се поизпитаме и по другите ни интересни теми, като биология, физика, философия, религия... и по малко гастрономия. Програма: 19:30 Meet & greet, формиране на отбори, опознаване на асортимента на бара 20:00 Начало на играта - 2 кръга (поне! може и бонус) 22:00 Награждаване и забава Отборите са оптимално от 3 до 6 души, който си няма достатъчно - можем да сформираме отбори на място. Въпросите варират по трудност, ще има по нещо за всеки. Имали сме участници и на 9г, които не бяха на нула точки, така че и вие ще уцелите все нещо - а по-напредналите също не са се оплаквали, че им е скучно. Правилата ще обясним на място, стандартната пъб куиз процедура - всяка маса е отбор и получава листче, на което пише отговорите и накрая на кръга го предава. Освен почестването на мозъчетата и забавленията Църквата иска да ни осигури малко агитация да сме по-заинтересовани в бъдещето на нашата цивилизация и да сме по-активни при насочването му. Искаме бъдещето на света да се решава все повече от мислещи хора, като събралите се тук, от колкото традиционните ни морални авторитети. Бумът на AI технологиите е повод да преосмислим някои социални ценности и смятаме, че пастафарианците заслужават място около масата повече от колкото брадатите ни колеги. Save the date! We will ponder entertaining riddles, eat noodly treats from the bar and speculate about the future of humanity. This time our central topic is artificial intelligence - but we will also cover other interesting topics like biology, physics, philosophy, religion... and a little gastronomy. Agenda: 19:30 Meet & greet, team formation, sampling the bar's selection 20:00 Start of the game - 2 rounds (at least! perhaps a bonus) 22:00 Awards and merriment Optimally form a team of 3 to 6 people, if you don't have enough - we can form teams on the spot. The questions vary in difficulty, there will be something for everyone. We also had 9 year old participants who finished with non-zero score, so rest assured that you will also hit something - and the know-it-alls were not bored either. We'll review the rules in detail during the intro, it's the standard pub quiz procedure - each table is a team and receives a piece of paper on which to write the answers and hand it over at the end of the round. In addition to exercising our brains and having fun, the Church wants to provide us with a little motivation to be more interested in the future of our civilization and to be more active in guiding it. We want the future of the world to be decided more by thinking people, like those gathered here, than by our traditional moral authorities. The boom in AI technologies is an occasion to rethink some social values, and we believe that Pastafarians deserve a place around the table more than our bearded colleagues.

Drawing on real-world experience from training thousands of professionals and deploying AI solutions, this session will provide clear, applicable insights for today’s evolving landscape. Following a short presentation, the session will open into an interactive discussion where attendees can share perspectives and explore key questions around the evolving role of humans, organizational adaptation, and staying competitive in an AI-first world. **Who should attend:** • Executives and managers in SaaS, consulting, and knowledge-driven organizations • Professionals exploring AI upskilling and workforce transformation • Anyone interested in the future of AI and knowledge work 📍 **Location:** Data Science Dojo, 5010 148th Ave NE, Suite 200A, Redmond, WA, United States 🔗 **Google Maps:** [https://lnkd.in/d8WA-yNc](https://lnkd.in/d8WA-yNc) **💻 Online Access:** A livestream will be available for those unable to attend in person; however, the full interactive experience is reserved for in-person participants.

The next NoVABeerSec event - "Informal Gathering of Security Minds Over Beer" will be Wednesday, April 29th, 5:30PM til 7:30ish at Aslin Beer Company - Herndon Taproom (767 Elden St., Herndon VA 20170). **Venue for April:** Aslin Beer Company (https://www.aslinbeer.com) - Aslin Beer Co. was founded in 2015 by Andrew Kelley and Kai Leszkowicz. The name, Aslin, comes from the family that connected Andrew and Kai through marriage; they each married a daughter from the Aslin Family. Andrew’s professional background was in finance and consulting, while Kai worked in public service. They bonded over a shared interest of craft beer and home-brewing, which eventually lead to the idea that “We can do this too.” **Additional Info:** We are an inclusive group, so if we missed anyone please let us know or if you want to bring your significant other/spouse please do. We do know there are folks that have changed roles since we last met so please also let us know if we need to add new contact info for people. Have a great week and see you later this month! Cheers, Rinaldi Rampen & Mike McCabe of @NoVABeerSec
