Society for Engineering Education, 2025 The Role of Predictive and Generative AI in Shaping Modern Education: Current ApplicationsIntroductionAI in education (AIEd) has been researched for over 30 years, with the International AIEdSociety (IAIED) founded in 1997 to advance the field [1]. The term ”artificial intelligence (AI)”was coined by John McCarthy in 1956 during the Dartmouth Conference, marking the formalbeginning of AI as a field [1]. Machine learning (ML) is a subset of AI that enhances its ability tooptimize operations and provide real-time responses. It enables computers to act, think, learn, andoperate independently within the broader AI framework [2]. Within this framework, generativeAI represents a
