Abstract

In this article, we seek to recognize and analyze the cognitive development and social interactions derived from the use of Artificial Intelligence in students aged 5 to 11. We emphasize how the integration of Artificial Intelligence (AI) technology has become an integral part of the Australian primary education system, its positive and negative impact on physical and socio-emotional development, and we also address the new and complex social dynamics that Artificial Intelligence (AI) introduces in the classroom. We also analyze the role of parents and educators in teaching digital responsibility for the use of AI, creating a balanced approach to properly managing educational policies, and addressing potential academic, physical, and social dilemmas arising from the use of Artificial Intelligence.
