Abstract

Education and educational institutions have undergone many changes in recent years, mainly due to the development of new technologies. The findings of relevant research indicate that the implementation of artificial intelligence into the educational process affects the improvement of students' achievement. The application of artificial intelligence in education has contributed to the development of teaching efficiency through personalized approaches to learning, providing unique experiences for each student. The paper defines artificial intelligence in the educational context, as well as its elements, along with presenting the significant research results and highlighting the advantages and disadvantages of using artificial intelligence in education. The aim of the paper is to shed light on the importance of this phenomenon and its effect on educational practice. Despite the indisputable benefits of artificial intelligence, it is important to point out that there are also potential challenges that we need to perceive and focus on overcoming.
