The Future of Artificial Intelligence in Education in Morocco: Challenges and Perspectives

Artificial Intelligence (AI) is reshaping nearly every sector, and education is no exception. Its integration has transformed how learning is delivered, assessed, and managed. AI supports students and educators by enhancing the quality of instruction, optimizing administrative work, and providing innovative tools for learning. Research consistently shows that AI improves educational efficiency and provides rich learning resources. However, concerns remain regarding reduced student–teacher interaction and potential threats to academic integrity. Therefore, while AI inspires optimism, it also calls for responsible and cautious implementation.
