In recent years, artificial intelligence (AI) has grown exponentially. Technologies using artificial intelligence can sort through and decipher vast volumes of data from several sources to carry out a range of activities. The expansion of social production is facilitated by the development of artificial intelligence, but it also poses significant challenges to conventional wisdom in human education in the post-COVID-19 context. This chapter discusses how various educational techniques may have been influenced by the emergence of artificial intelligence technologies. The authors concentrate on the significance of using artificial intelligence in education 4.0 with a view to the green idea in light of the study. The study also looked at the kinds of green artificial intelligence technologies that are most commonly employed in the education sector. The study in this field discusses the value of technology, including artificial intelligence, and how instructors and students use them in the teaching and learning process.
Top1. Introduction
In recent years, artificial intelligence (AI) has grown exponentially. Technologies using artificial intelligence can sort through and decipher vast volumes of data from multiple sources to carry out a range of activities (Roll & Wylie, 2016; Chen et al., 2020; Abdellatif et al., 2022). The expansion of social production is facilitated by the development of artificial intelligence, but it also poses significant challenges to conventional wisdom in human education in the post-COVID-19 context (Morales-Rodríguez et al., 2021; Adadi et al., 2022; Crompton & Burke, 2023). A new age of human individual reinforcement growth has begun as a result of the rapid advancement of artificial intelligence. The ability to access any type of information is quite useful for people in the modern world (Ahmad et al., 2022). Without being constrained by geography, time, or language, users of networked mobile phones can access almost limitless knowledge and answers to a wide range of issues (Bali et al., 2022). The “human reinforcement” stage of human-computer interaction is still in its early stages. Artificial intelligence and human consciousness are being combined through the use of brain-computer interface technologies. The term “brain-computer interface” (BCI) describes a direct link between the human or animal brain and an external apparatus that enables the flow of information between the brain and the apparatus. In the future, humans will have simple access to sound, visual, and text information via a brain-computer interface. Anyone who desires it will instantly have access to all of humankind's knowledge, and even memory transplants will be possible (AlDhaen, 2022; Ahuja et al., 2023).
Moreover, filmmakers, futurists, cartoonists, and science fiction authors have all developed imaginative stories about how artificial intelligence will affect our way of life. It is what we may describe as imagination or prediction (Teng et al., 2020; Alam et al., 2021). However, until today, there have been no significant modifications. But it's undeniable that AI has impacted every part of our existence, and we can, therefore, conclude that it has brought about omnipresent changes. Intelligent photo-editing software, self-driving cars, search engines that remember our past actions and display results appropriately, Google searches that show results based on our location, and personal assistants on smart phones are just a few examples of how AI is used in daily life. Humanoids are utilized for instructional purposes in classrooms in various educational institutions. However, they remain indoors, though (Xia & Li, 2022).
Furthermore, the growth and development of information technology offer a technical foundation for reforming education and opening doors for educational innovation. The worldwide COVID-19 epidemic has brought about a new normal that further opens up opportunities for the widespread use of online learning (Bearman et al., 2022). As more educational institutions offer degree-granting distant and hybrid education programs, it is because of the flexibility, information accessibility, global reach, equity, creativity, and efficiency that online education has to offer. However, there are also drawbacks to online learning, such as technological limitations, a loss of community and connection, the presence of distractions, and a lack of engagement (Ayanwale et al., 2022). Learners who are self-motivated in their learning and self-disciplined in time management can succeed in online education. They also need access to technology (i.e., hardware and software) and some basic technical abilities. The next normal, which will be post-COVID-19, will involve a significant amount of online instruction. Higher education will coexist with traditional education to provide more educational options, support educational equity, and foster educational innovation by using artificial intelligence and mobile learning (Chen et al., 2020; Alam & Mohanty, 2022).
