The Ethical Problem of the Use of AIs in the Daily Life of High School Students

The use of artificial intelligence (AI) in education has expanded rapidly, impacting the daily lives of high school students.Although these technologies promise to personalize teaching and optimize learning, ethical challenges arise that require critical analysis.Issues such as privacy, algorithmic bias and the possibility of teachers being replaced by automated systems raise concerns about educational equity and quality.This article investigates these issues based on a qualitative documentary analysis approach, according to the methodology proposed by Severino (2008).The study points out that the implementation of AI in education can reinforce social inequalities if its algorithms are developed without transparency and without considering the diversity of students.In addition, the massive collection of data puts students' privacy at risk, making it essential to create public policies to regulate it.Another aspect analyzed is the role of the teacher, who may be shifted to a secondary role, limiting their direct interaction with students.In light of this, this article proposes a critical reflection on the use of AI in education, highlighting the need for an ethical and inclusive approach to its adoption.For technology to make a positive contribution in secondary education, it is essential that its implementation is aligned with solid pedagogical principles and that it respects the autonomy of teachers and students.
