Abstract

The purpose of this study is to ascertain the academic performance of the students of Prince Abubakar Audu University with regards to the use of Artificial Intelligence (AI). Understanding AI’s effects on student learning outcomes is becoming increasingly important as these technologies continue to penetrate society in many domains, including education. The survey approach was used in the study, and a questionnaire was used to collect data. The Diffusion of Innovations theory and the Technology Acceptance Model (TAM) are the foundation of this work. The results show that AI has a variety of effects on student performance, including increased efficiency and individualized learning. The study also looks at how pedagogical approaches and educational policy may be altered in order to maximize AI’s advantages while avoiding its drawbacks. All things considered, this study adds to the larger conversation about the use of AI in education and helps shape plans for improving learning outcomes for students in the digital age. Keywords: Artificial Intelligence, technology, innovations, education
