Artificial Intelligence (AI) has become a revolutionary force in modern education systems, transforming traditio nal teaching methods into more adaptive, interactive, and personalized learning environments. This paper explores the role of AI in classroom education, focusing on its applications, benefits, and challenges. The study is based on a qualitative literature review and thematic analysis of recent academic sources. The findings show that AI significantly improves learning outcomes, enhances teacher productivity, and increases student engagement through personalized educational experiences. However, challenges such as ethical issues, data privacy concerns, technological inequality, and overdependence on automation remain critical. The study concludes that AI should be integrated into education as a complementary tool that supports teachers and enhances human-centered learning.
