Viitorul educației în era inteligenței artificiale și a transformării digitale
The Future of Education in the Era of Artificial Intelligence and Digital Transformation

Summary/Abstract: This paper explores the impact of artificial intelligence (AI) and digital transformation on education, examining how these technologies reshape teaching, learning, and assessment processes. In the digital era, teachers are no longer mere sources of information but become facilitators and mentors, using adaptive learning platforms, educational chatbots, and digital tools that personalize learning paths and provide real-time feedback. AI offers significant benefits, including rapid access to up-to-date information, individualized learning, automation of repetitive tasks, and increased inclusion for students with special needs. At the same time, it poses challenges such as reduced critical thinking, overreliance on technology, and the potential generation of unverified academic content.The paper includes a comparative analysis of policies in Romanian universities: Politehnica University of Timișoara encourages responsible AI use, integrating it ethically into the educational process, while Transilvania University of Brașov adopts a restrictive policy, prohibiting AI in evaluated assignments. These approaches highlight the need for a unified legal and ethical framework for AI integration in education.Strategic recommendations are proposed, including the development of digital skills and critical thinking, promotion of information verification, mandatory digital literacy programs, and continuous teacher training. When used responsibly and pedagogically, AI can serve as a powerful tool to enhance human potential and support a modern, adaptive, and sustainable educational system.
