By Abstract
This paper introduced the concepts of artificial intelligence. Various concept associated to it were explained and described. The paper x-rayed various functions of artificial intelligence among which are grading and assessing the learner and also facilitating the role of the instructor. It equally showed its disadvantages among which is inadequate preparedness of teachers and educational institutes especially in the third world countries. Based on the analysis and literature reviewed, the author recommends that artificial intelligence is good in many aspects but before using it for teaching in higher institutions, government must put up a guideline for its usage. The conclusion shows that no matter what we think artificial intelligence can do, it will never in any way take the position of humans since it is the invention of man and is being controlled by man.
