Abstract
As Artificial Intelligence (AI) is progressively permeating other sectors, our education sector stands no exception. AI is becoming a revolutionary force in the Indian Education System, presenting both new opportunities and unconventional limitations. While traditional teaching methods still dominate Indian educational institutions, there is growing recognition of the need to adapt to shifting academic demands and global trends. The purpose of this paper is to explore and understand the presence of AI in educational networks. The paper begins by discussing the current scenario of the conventional teaching setup, and how it is experiencing a gradual shift towards more student-centred application and the incorporation of modern pedagogical practices into it. Albeit, the indigenous knowledge setup is currently faced with several difficulties in terms of preservation, dissemination, and resurgence. The way knowledge has been imparted in India for decades now has made the presence of traditional setup an unaltered element of our education system. The combination of AI technologies and current advancements in educational technology is changing the face of higher education, opening up new options and changing conventional teaching methodologies. The paper tends to discuss such advancements and shed light on the efforts of the government, our education system, and educators that they have been taking jointly to incorporate “Digital Learning Aids” as a part of their academics. With the aim of reducing the knowledge gap between traditional practices and modern technology, this piece of research examines how artificial intelligence (AI) can be upkeep with Traditional Knowledge Networks (IKNs). The paper culminates by outlining probable future avenues for AI in aiding IKNs and how critical the presence of AI in education networks will be due to the technology singularity.
