THE FUTURE OF ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE AND INCLUSIVE EDUCATION

Artificial Intelligence (AI) is changing education by making it more accessible for everyone, including students with disabilities and those who struggle with learning. AI-powered tools like speech-to-text, adaptive learning platforms, and virtual tutors help students learn at their own pace. These technologies can support teachers, giving them insights into student progress and helping them adjust lessons to fit individual needs. However, AI in education also comes with challenges such as privacy concerns, fairness issues, and the need for proper policies. This thesis explores how AI can create a fairer education system, where all students, regardless of their background or abilities, can benefit. It discusses AI’s role in inclusive education, the latest trends, challenges, and possible solutions. The goal is to understand how AI can help make learning more personalized and accessible while addressing ethical concerns.
