Abstract:
Artificial Intelligence (AI) has the potential to revolutionize higher education by
enhancing teaching and learning processes, improving access to education, and
facilitating administrative tasks. However, the implementation of AI in low and middleincome
countries
(LMICs)
comes
with
its
own
set
of
opportunities
and
challenges.
This
study
aims
to
explore
the
opportunities
and
challenges
of
AI
in
higher
education
among
LMICs,
taking
into
consideration
the
socioeconomic
context
and
specific
needs
of
these
countries.
The findings suggest that AI can address the educational inequalities and
improve access to quality education in LMICs. However, challenges such as limited
resources, lack of infrastructure, and cultural barriers need to be overcome for successful
implementation. To fully leverage the potential of AI in higher education, it is crucial
for institutions to invest in faculty development, research, and collaboration to ensure
responsible and effective implementation.
