Summary/Abstract: In recent years, the rise of artificial intelligence (AI), particularly through the widespread adoption of generative AI, has significantly impacted various aspects of society, including the economic, educational, and cultural spheres, both in professional and personal contexts. This rapidly evolving technology is poised to become as ubiquitous as smartphones, transforming many aspects of daily life, including how we teach and learn. Such rapid developments in emerging technologies are generating significant responses from educational actors. From raising concerns to adopting AI for teaching and learning activities, the challenges, limits, risks, barriers, and opportunities of using AI in higher education are becoming central topics of discussion, highlighting its potential for meaningful impact. This paper aims to investigate how prepared the education system is to face these opportunities and challenges, from both students' and teachers' perspectives. Additionally, we seek to understand the role of other educational actors and stakeholders in enhancing the implementation and use of AI, both in educational contexts and beyond.
