What does bilingual education look like in the age of artificial intelligence and machine learning? How do we preserve authentic language acquisition, human connection, and meaningful communication in an increasingly digital world?

In December 2025, the French American School of Puget Sound (FASPS) brought together leading voices in bilingualism, linguistics, and education for a special 30th Anniversary community event: The Bilingual Advantage: Preserving Language Acquisition in the Age of Machine Learning.

This engaging conference featured keynote speaker Jérémie Séror of the University of Ottawa, alongside panelists Quincy Taylor of FASPS and Naja Ferjan Ramírez of the University of Washington, moderated by former CNN correspondent Katharine Barrett.

Together, they explored the cognitive, cultural, and educational impact of bilingualism, the future of language learning, and why human-centered bilingual education matters now more than ever.

Whether you are a parent, educator, researcher, or simply curious about the future of learning, we invite you to watch this fascinating conversation and discover how bilingual education can shape a child’s future in a rapidly changing world.
