Sun’iy intellekt va ta’lim: texnologiya o‘qituvchining o‘rnini bosadimi yoki uning imkoniyatlarini kengaytiradimi?

The article analyzes the introduction of artificial intelligence (AI) technologies into the modern education system, their opportunities and risks, and the changing role of the teacher. The study is theoretical and analytical in nature and is based on comparing and synthesizing international scholarly literature and normative documents of the Republic of Uzbekistan. Particular attention is paid to the specifics of technology education as a field of study—practical skills, safety rules and project-based work—and to the challenges in the context of Uzbekistan. The analysis shows that AI offers personalized learning, rapid feedback and savings in teachers’ time, but when used without oversight it may weaken independent thinking, spread inaccurate information and threaten academic integrity. The article argues that AI does not replace the teacher but serves as a tool that supports the teacher’s work. For technology lessons, an illustrative model based on the principle “try it yourself first, then use AI, then test in practice” is proposed, and practical recommendations are offered for teachers, students and educational institutions.
