Innovation and Digital Transformation for a Sustainable World

6. CONCLUSION AND POLICY PRESCRIPTION:

AI is emerging as the most discussed and debated subject as
far as its usage in the education sector is concerned. It is
overcoming enormous challenges as it must face a
completely new era of customized learning with the help of
advanced support systems. Though the student community
is trying their level best to reap the benefits of AI in
education, yet in a developing country like India, where
there exists high level of digital divide among various
sections of the society in regards to their socio-economic
and demographic characteristics, it is feared that a newer
divide which we may refer to as the „AI Divide‟ would
further act as a catalyst in aggravating the already existing
digital divide. It is the need of the hour for targeted
government interventions, so that the students belonging to
the lower economic class and residing in the rural areas get
the benefits of AI usage in education. For this, awareness
programmes on abundant usage of AI in the education
sector should be made available to all students. Moreover,
curriculum on AI should be made compulsory for all UG
and PG level students of our country. Infrastructure in
colleges and universities should be so developed that the
students can use AI for personalized learning and
innovation through easy access to resources. Though there
are certain hazards connected to the development and use of
artificial intelligence, including worries about privacy,
security, and safety, yet its responsible utilization can go a
long way in the education industry, thus making learning
more successful and entertaining.
