Artificial intelligence (AI) is increasingly important in higher education, offering new opportunities and challenges for teaching, learning, and management. This study explores how AI can be applied in higher education, its impact on teaching and learning, and the challenges of implementation. AI enables higher education services to be more accessible and efficient, both in and out of the classroom. It supports teachers in administrative tasks, improves student learning experiences, and enhances the overall quality of education. AI systems use machine learning and adaptability to tailor curricula and content, improving student engagement and retention. The study also examines the role of AI in education, including its potential to change the roles of teachers, schools, and educational leaders. AI is already widely used in education, from computer-based systems to web-based intelligent educational systems and humanoid robots. The study highlights the importance of AI in education, its benefits, and the challenges of implementation, including data protection, financial support, and communication with students. While AI has many benefits, it also presents challenges that educational institutions must address. The study concludes that AI has the potential to significantly impact higher education, but its successful implementation requires careful planning and consideration of various factors. The role of AI in education is still evolving, and institutions that adopt AI effectively can benefit students, teachers, and educational leaders.Artificial intelligence (AI) is increasingly important in higher education, offering new opportunities and challenges for teaching, learning, and management.
