Transforming Education

Abstract

Generative AI systems are increasingly present in our daily lives, helping us make crucial decisions. They use machine learning algorithms and tools, fed with millions of data collected from the web, producing entirely new information and generating variations. And this is not just limited to texts — it can produce images, audio, videos, even code, or new programming languages. There are several fields where generative AI can have a considerable impact in the coming years. In this context, the issues proposed in this chapter are: What is generative AI? What is prompt engineering? How to transform education using generative AI and prompt engineering in creating synthetic content? To respond to the research problem, the following objective will be achieved: Investigate how to transform education using generative AI and prompt engineering in the creation of synthetic content. It is concluded that generative AI tools can also help create more efficient exercises. Teachers and educators can use technology to create instructional materials and present summaries of concepts.
