The World of Technology: Artificial Intelligence in Education

Abstract

The evolution of artificial intelligence (AI) has enhanced the development of education systems, resulting in the empowerment and engagement of educators, learners, and administrators. However, technological approaches have been criticized because of their lack of appropriate technological and theoretical basis in education systems despite decades of their adoption in the educational systems. Therefore, AI is considered a diverse branch of computer science associated with the design and development of smart machines capable of performing tasks typically meant for human intelligence. Generally, AI involves machines, particularly computer systems, simulating human intelligence processes through applications such as natural language processing, speech recognition, expert systems, and machine vision. Various economic, social, and political sectors, as well as many others, have adopted AI to improve their functionality and efficiency. Education systems are one of the many sectors that have adopted AI to supplement lessons and improve the quality of teaching.
