Summary/Abstract: In recent years, there has been a growing interest in the application of artificial intelligence (AI) in education. AI is currently used in many areas of education, including administration in schools, learning adaptations, and expanding the accessibility of education. Although AI has a lot of potential benefits, there are obstacles that must be conquer before it can be put into practice. This study examined the relationship between AI and the teaching-learning process in education in Nigeria, specifically focusing on undergraduates at Delta State University, Abraka. A cross-sectional study approach was used in this study, which obtained data from 437 undergraduate students. A stratified sampling technique was used to select a sample of the respondents. To analyze the data for the study, the t-test, correlation, and linear regression analysis were employed. This study demonstrated the robust and beneficial relationship between artificial intelligence and the teaching-learning process in education in Nigerian. However, there are also difficulties with using AI in education. These difficulties include students' excessive reliance on technology, concerns about data security and privacy, unequal access, prejudice and discrimination, technological difficulties, and the decline of human values. The study concluded that in order to prepare their students for the challenges of the AI revolution, Nigerian educational institutions should educate and nurture their students. The use of AI has the potential to improve teaching-learning process, personalize learning to students' needs, and boost administrative effectiveness in school management. Ensuring fairness and inclusivity and the future of teaching in the AI age are crucial when creating AI-based educational systems.
