Abstract

The development of artificial intelligence (AI) has significantly impacted the learning process in higher education. This study aims to analyze the use of artificial intelligence to support the learning process in higher education, including the forms of use, benefits, and challenges it poses. The study used a qualitative descriptive approach with a literature review method. Data were obtained from various scientific journal articles, books, research reports, and institutional documents relevant to the use of AI in higher education. Data analysis was conducted using content analysis by identifying, classifying, comparing, and synthesizing various previous research findings. The results show that AI can be utilized as a learning assistant, a supporter of personalized learning, a developer of teaching materials, a provider of feedback, an assessment supporter, and a tool to enhance student self-directed learning and creativity. The use of AI can also help lecturers increase efficiency in planning and implementing learning. However, the use of AI presents challenges such as information inaccuracy, technology dependency, violations of academic integrity, data privacy, bias, and the potential for a decline in students' critical thinking skills. Therefore, the use of AI in higher education must be carried out ethically, critically, responsibly, and human-centeredly through strengthening AI literacy, improving lecturer competency, institutional policies, and adjusting assessment systems. AI should be positioned as a tool to enhance the learning process, not as a substitute for lecturers or students' thinking processes.
