This study aims to explore the perceived value of artificial intelligence (AI) in the field of education, with a particular focus on the differences in attitudes between students and educators. Through a questionnaire survey, data were collected from 267 respondents with diverse ages, genders, educational backgrounds, and professional identities. The results show that over 90% of respondents believe that schools should teach AI skills and generally support using AI as an auxiliary tool rather than directly replacing manual tasks. Educators generally view AI as a means to enhance teaching efficiency and effectiveness, while students exhibit a certain degree of caution. This study provides a cognitive perspective for understanding the application value of AI in the education sector, offering valuable insights for policymakers and educational practitioners to conduct scientific evaluations and rational planning when promoting and implementing AI. It contributes to the organic integration of educational quality and technological innovation.
