ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE AS HUMANITY’S OFFSPRING: EDUCATIONAL RESPONSIBILITIES IN THE AGE OF DIGITAL INNOVATION

Enza Sidoti, Lorenzo Marrali

Abstract


The contribution explores the relationship between education and artificial intelligence through the concept of educational responsibility. AI is interpreted as a product of human intelligence and, therefore, as a technology requiring ethical and pedagogical guidance. After briefly reconstructing the evolution of AI, the paper examines the educational implications of intelligent technologies, highlighting the need to develop a critical culture capable of directing their use toward genuinely formative and human-centered purposes.
