Ohio State’s Groundbreaking AI Fluency Initiative
Ohio State University has announced a pioneering initiative requiring all undergraduate students to gain fluency in artificial intelligence (AI) by integrating AI education across all majors, reports LiveNation via Yahoo.com. This move aims to prepare students for a workforce increasingly influenced by AI technologies.

Curriculum Integration and Faculty Support
Starting in Fall 2025, Ohio State will embed AI training into general education requirements, including courses like the Launch Seminar and Success Series workshops for freshmen.
