allows for a deeper understanding of the impact of AI tools on teaching and learning, considering the rich and complex dynamics of the classroom environment. Additionally, government-led initiatives can provide essential support to provide guidelines and professionalisation opportunities with regard to design, development and implementation. In sum, the collaboration between educational stakeholders holds significant value and is highly regarded: by sharing knowledge, designing interventions together, and engaging in ongoing dialogue, more evidence-based AI-tools can be developed which are relevant, applicable and valorised in real-world educational settings. Fostering collaboration between schools, companies, researchers and policymakers will become increasingly important for sustainable growth. Only within a shared vision and constructive dialogue about responsible AI use, teachers/ trainers and learners can be empowered to actively shape their educational paths in education and training contexts. Above all, a realistic approach is needed with regards to AIED. Neither naivety nor scepticism will futureproof our attitude towards innovation. AI is here to stay, with every risk and opportunity in full effect immediately upon release. The only truly impactful way will be forward! Moving ahead, we need to raise awareness and empowerment about privacy and ethics concerning the use of AI, demand main actors’ agency within the teaching/training and learning environment (i.e. teachers/trainers and learners) and incentivise explain ability within artificially intelligent systems that can be used in both formal and informal educational settings. Only then will we be able to go digital while simultaneously staying human. Implications for practice Institutions should move away from isolated tool adoption and instead form collaborative partnerships between teachers, researchers, and tech developers to ensure AI tools are tested and validated in real classrooms.
