Abstract

Artificial Intelligence (AI) applications in education are predicted to increase internationally at a rate of 45% annually, reaching a value of $5.80 billion by 2025. This paper explores the intellectual and political impacts of integrating AI in classroom learning. It analyzes and discusses past classroom learning outcomes when integrated with AI technologies, as well as how classroom learning has evolved and will continue to evolve. To predict and adapt to the future of technology in education, where AI is deeply embedded into the fabric of our educational institutions, we must study its implications from various perspectives, from the classroom to broader society. This literature review aims to dissect the benefits and past results of AI integration, while also examining its controversies and barriers in wider contexts.
