Generative artificial intelligence tools such as ChatGPT have become common in education over the past three years. After late 2022, many schools and universities began using these tools as access became easier. Students now use AI at school and at home to support learning, research, and exam preparation. In 2023, schools in North America and Europe introduced rules on AI use because concerns about academic honesty increased. University studies show that AI can help students understand difficult topics, but schools warn that incorrect use can harm learning.AI can provide full answers, making it hard to confirm students’ original work, so many institutions now treat AI use as an academic honesty issue. Experts say AI works best as a study helper rather than a writing tool. Quiz-style questions and explanations help students find mistakes and improve understanding. However, challenges remain, including limited teacher training and unequal access to technology. Schools aim to balance the benefits of AI with the need to protect learning standards.
