In this era AI has been capturing a significant role in job sector and daily life activities, also in education. But how does it impact on educational process and shape learning? Does it promote or slower the learning process?
i would say it promotes the learning process because with AI things get simpler for example it comes with more problem solving techniques, accurate suggestions and also it makes learning fun so there will engagement between learners and their teacher.

In my recent book I stated "Electronic artificial memory may be the biggest setback in human history." We are training to forget. Societal adoption of AI has lured educators to adopt the basic AI assumption that AI is knowledge and therefore it is good. AI replaces the traditional learning process which is based on memory and incentives to implement deductions from memory. Since AI is based on standard (average) reactions and expectations, innovators (using astute memory to create) will be AI outliers, and thereby educated to comply to the average.

To repeat an argument put forth by Harald Lesch (a German physicist and public intellectual), AI is the biggest threat for education that we have ever faced. His argument is that since AI delivers solutions without explanation, the need for training in reasoning evaporates. Since education is about learning how to reason, AI could make education pointless.
On the other hand, as Noam Chomsky often points out, technology is neutral: it can be used for good or bad. For example, AI could be used to free humans from stupid, repetitive tasks. Thus freeing them to pursue creative and meaningful activities. So, it may be best to proceed with caution.
