José Antonio Bowen and C. Edward Watson, Teaching with AI: A Practical Guide to a New Era of Human Learning, Johns Hopkins University Press, 2024; 270 pp.: ISBN: 978-142-144-922-7

Bowen and Watson's book provides a comprehensive and up-to-date understanding of the role of artificial intelligence (AI) in higher education today.The authors combine theoretical insights, empirical data and practical examples in a book aimed primarily at educators and education policy makers.The work encourages systematic, ethical and critical thinking about how AI can be integrated into curricula as a tool for collaboration rather than a threat.The present review discusses the book's main content points, as well as their validity and relevance in the Slovenian context.This work is relevant in the Slovenian context as teacher education faculties face the challenge of preparing future teachers for the reality of classrooms where the presence of AI will be unavoidable.The authors present a balanced approach that advocates neither uncritical acceptance nor outright rejection of the technology, but rather encourages thoughtful collaboration with machine learning tools as partners in the learning process.Such an approach is crucial for preparing competent teachers who will be able to navigate the complex world of modern education.Structurally, the book is divided into three interconnected sections: "Thinking with AI", "Teaching with AI" and "Learning with AI".The first part deals with a basic understanding of how large language models work and their impact on cognitive processes.The authors introduce key concepts such as "hallucinations" of AI, biases in algorithms, and the importance of a critical understanding of the limitations of modern machine learning systems.The theoretical framework of the book is based on an interdisciplinary approach that combines insights from educational psychology, cognitive
