Optimizing Educational Opportunities using AI to Ensure Accessibility at Public Sector Institutions in Poland

Abstract

The use of artificial intelligence in education is a logical consequence of the potential it represents. The solutions offered by AI to eliminate barriers, e.g. for people with special educational needs, provide real help in communicating with them. However, the potential often does not equal the opportunity. It is necessary to check whether the environment in which AI solutions will be implemented is actually prepared for its application/use. The article indicates the main directions of AI development in education by analyzing the types of disabilities among learners. Finding real needs will allow you to optimize opportunities (using AI) for equal access to education. Public institutions were subjected to additional examination. Its aim is to check their actual digitization status, which creates the foundation for implementing modern solutions.
