The past year, AI has become a part of our everyday lives, primarily through ChatGPT. This technology has opened up new possibilities, while also bringing challenges and a certain degree of uncertainty regarding what it actually entails.
Firstly, no one has a complete overview of everything happening in this field – no one has full insight. At the same time, we see that the technology is gradually being integrated into classrooms, and it can be useful to acquire some knowledge in this area.
