Abstract
The article explores the opportunities and challenges associated with the use of artificial intelligence (AI) tools in the context of inclusive digital education in higher education institutions. The aim is to identify the potential of AI technologies in creating a flexible learning environment that accommodates the individual needs of students with special educational requirements. The study involves a review of academic literature and an analysis of existing AI solutions, including adaptive learning platforms, digital assistants, and content generation tools. Particular attention is given to assessing their effectiveness, accessibility, and impact on student learning outcomes. The findings highlight both the positive effects, such as personalized learning, increased engagement, and access to educational materials and the significant challenges, including high costs, limited platform compatibility, algorithmic bias, and privacy concerns. The study concludes that a comprehensive approach to AI integration is essential, encompassing ethical regulation, staff training, and infrastructure development. The results emphasize that, when implemented properly, AI can become a key instrument in transforming inclusive education, ensuring equal learning opportunities for all categories of students.
