Generative AI in Modern Education Society

TL;DR
This paper investigates how Generative AI can be integrated into Education 5.0 to transform teaching, learning, and research while addressing integrity and equity. It grounds the discussion in a literature review of GenAI models, tools, and case studies, organized within an Education 5.0 framework. The authors map GenAI applications to core educational domains—classroom learning, higher education, and research & development—and identify major challenges (privacy, integrity, bias, social interaction, and access) along with concrete future directions (reinforcement learning for social learning, digital literacies, and educator training). The work provides a structured, cross-level view intended to inform educators, policymakers, and developers about effective, ethical, and scalable adoption of GenAI in modern education.
Abstract
Transitioning from Education 1.0 to Education 5.0, the integration of generative artificial intelligence (GenAI) revolutionizes the learning environment by fostering enhanced human-machine collaboration, enabling personalized, adaptive and experiential learning, and preparing students with the skills and adaptability needed for the future workforce. Our understanding of academic integrity and the scholarship of teaching, learning, and research has been revolutionised by GenAI. Schools and universities around the world are experimenting and exploring the integration of GenAI in their education systems (like, curriculum design, teaching process and assessments, administrative tasks, results generation and so on). The findings of the literature study demonstrate how well GenAI has been incorporated into the global educational system. This study explains the roles of GenAI in the schooling and university education systems with respect to the different stakeholders (students, teachers, researchers etc,). It highlights the current challenges of integrating Generative AI into the education system and outlines future directions for leveraging GenAI to enhance educational practices.
