Anih Anselem Anayochukwu

Abstract

Artificial Intelligence(AI) has transformed education through task automation, personalization, and administrative enhancement.Nonetheless, its educational integration raises ethical issues, notably regarding job loss,academic integrity,data security, and algorithmic bias.This review analyzes the challenges and ethical ramifications of AI in education and suggests strategies for responsible implementation.The importance of this study is underscored by its focus on balancing AI automation with the indispensable role of human educators.By examining policy suggestions, governance structures, and ethical guidelines, this review offers perspectives on ensuring fairness,transparency, and inclusivity inAI-enhanced education.Addressing these ethical issues is vital for upholding academic integrity,promoting equitable access,and maintaining human engagement in educational settings.

Keywords
