AI is increasingly playing a crucial role in the sector, with the advent of new AI-based learning tools accelerating the pace of traditional education, transforming the learning ecosystem, and creating personalized learning environments through machine-based methods. This enables educators to efficiently address students’ specific learning needs anytime, anywhere.
