Abstract

Introduction: This research explores the opinions of future early childhood teachers about the use of artificial intelligence (AI) in the preparation of their academic work, highlighting both advantages and disadvantages. Methodology: Reflections were collected from 109 students through an open questionnaire that included both advantages and disadvantages of using AI. The frequencies and percentages of the responses obtained were analyzed. Results: Among the main advantages identified are: speed and efficiency, personalization of learning and inspiration for new ideas. Among the most mentioned drawbacks are: generalization and repetition, lack of customization and technological dependency. Discussion: The results show that AI can significantly improve efficiency and personalization in education. However, challenges such as lack of specificity, technological dependence, and possible loss of teaching creativity must be managed to maximize the benefits of AI in the educational field. Conclusions: AI offers significant advantages, but also presents significant challenges. It is crucial to complement its use with meaningful human intervention to ensure inclusive and effective education, addressing concerns about privacy and equity in access to technology. Quality AI training is also necessary.
