Challenges of AI in Education


 Technical Expertise
 Some educators may struggle with a lack of technical expertise, spending an
excessive amount of time and effort trying to adapt AI tools to their needs.


 Cost
 Implementing AI-powered solutions can be financially demanding, making it a
challenge for institutions with budget constraints.


 Ethical Concerns
 Privacy, security, plagiarism, inequity, and the potential disruption of the job
market are among the ethical concerns that need careful consideration when
integrating AI in education.


 Quality Concerns
 Maintaining high standards and ensuring AI-generated content aligns with
educational objectives is critical. An over-reliance on AI tools may lead to a
decline in quality and richness of educational content, with the risk of
perpetuating inaccuracies or biases present in the training data of the AI
model.


 Human-AI Collaboration
 There may be resistance to adopting AI in education due to concerns about
job displacement. However, AI is not a replacement for human creativity.
Educators and learners contribute unique perspectives and creative thinking
that AI cannot replicate. Instead, AI serves as a valuable tool to augment
human capabilities.
