Integration of Artificial Intelligence in the Field of Education: Problems, Challenges, Threats, Prospects

The article is devoted to the study of the impact of artificial intelligence (AI) on modern education, the analysis of the prospects for the use of artificial intelligence in institutions of higher education (HEIs) and the resulting problems. It was emphasized that the future of education is inextricably linked with the development of information and communication technologies and intelligent machines. The prospects of artificial intelligence open up new opportunities in teaching and learning in higher education institutions with a strong potential to change even the management system of higher education institutions. The history of the emergence of artificial intelligence is briefly given, starting from the 13th century, when Raimund Lullius proposed the idea of implementing reasoning and mental processes in an intellectual machine. The article uses methods of complex theoretical and descriptive analysis. The scientific novelty of the work: the established effectiveness of using artificial intelligence in education can be presented in the form of the following functions: automation, integration, acclimatization, differentiation, identification. The increasingly widespread use of artificial intelligence in higher education institutions and schools also raises ethical questions. Educational institutions must now consider what type of data is collected, how that information is used, and what controls are in place to protect the privacy of learners. Practical significance of the work: in addition to functions that reflect the effectiveness of using artificial intelligence in the educational process, because the authors identified the positive aspects of introducing artificial intelligence into education. The results of the study: the authors of the article come to the conclusion that now it is necessary to rethink the function and pedagogical models of learning in connection with artificial intelligence in higher education institutions, because significant opportunities are opening up for higher education institutions thanks to the use of artificial intelligence in the educational process.
