The teacher's opinion on the application of artificial intelligence in changing the paradigm of education

The aim of the research is to determine the attitudes of teachers in Serbia toward the use of artificial intelligence in education, to assess their level of competence, the frequency and manner of AI tool usage, as well as to identify the key challenges that limit the effective integration of AI into teaching and administrative tasks. To this end, a quantitative study was conducted. The sample consisted of 74 teachers working in primary, secondary and higher education institutions and universities in the Republic of Serbia. The research findings indicate that teachers recognise the benefits that artificial intelligence can bring to the educational process, but also face numerous challenges in its implementation. Key barriers include a lack of adequate training, technological infrastructure and institutional support, as well as the need to address ethical concerns and technical challenges.
