Artificial Intelligence commonly known as AI is an upcoming technology, which is transforming the core of the education eco system by converting the conventional methods of acquiring knowledge and skills into an all-inclusive way of learning with the aid of augmented reality, virtual reality and simulation paraphernalia. Artificial intelligence (AI) has an intrinsic impact on the learning environment in current times and the ramifications are colossal. AI has the promise to alchemize how our education system functions, magnify the competition among various institutions, and aggrandize teachers and learners across all skill capabilities. Owing to the pandemic online education became the only way to ensure continuity in studies for college and school students and this period of time expedited the advent of AI in the education system for it was the enabler that improved online education across platforms. AI optimized both imparting and absorbing of knowledge, thereby boosting the education sector to grow and favour both students and teachers.

Among its myriad uses, the usage of artificial intelligence in the mechanization of administrative jobs, is decluttering the time and schedules of teachers who are currently struggling with time management. This in turn is enabling teachers to put their time to better use thereby improving the quality of education and its methodology by doing more research. This is then made accessible to a huge community as ingenious content. Engagement and absorption for students is enhanced by creation of digital learning. The amalgamation of teachers’ proficiency and smartness of machines will metamorphosize the entire education sector. Tedious conventional methodologies will give way to a whole new concept of learning wherein students will be exposed to technology, stimulating their minds to be more innovative and open to new ideas.

AI backed dynamic or smart content will making the learning process uncomplicated. Smart content comprises of a multifarious collection of digitized text books, video lectures and audio learning material. AI-supported smart content modules will give real-time feedback, mock tests, interactive content, and various functions that will basically break down complex ideas and theories into deftly graspable portions. This will ensure that students obtain their academic aims in a faster and more congenial manner.

Another incredible offering that AI will bring into learning and education is personalization. Soon digital assistants will become remarkably efficacious teachers and guides. The successors of Siri, Alexa and the rest will have an exhaustive cognizance of the curriculum that students will need to process. This team of virtual faculty will comprehend much better the method and approach to learning that would suit every individual the best. Artificial Intelligence will decode which times of day learners will be most responsive, and which times they would want to be left to unwind. Education will be less controlled, more pliable and above all highly customized to individual proclivities and predilections.

Last but not the least artificial intelligence is but a great slave and a disastrous master, hence it needs to be used as an enabler not a ruler. Education cannot outsource its faculty or intelligence to technology, but use it to rediscover, redefine and reinvent the paradigms.
