Language, AI & Human Futures

What:

A Zoom conversation with Kevin Weil from OpenAI on language, artificial intelligence, linguistic diversity, and human futures.

Event Date:
Feb 18, 2026 at 4:00 pm - 5:00 pm

Language, AI & Human Futures features Kevin Weil, Vice President of OpenAI for Science, in a Zoom conversation hosted by Shai Cohen of the University of Miami. Weil focuses on building AI platforms that accelerate scientific discovery and research.

The conversation will explore the role of language in artificial intelligence, with special attention to why linguistic diversity matters. As AI systems increasingly shape communication, education, research, and cultural life, questions of language access and representation have become central to conversations about human futures.

The flyer frames the program through a multilingual lens, with “Hello,” “Hola,” “Bonjour,” and “你好” appearing visually as reminders that the future of AI is not only technical but also cultural and linguistic. The event is free and open to all students, faculty, and community members.
