• Abstract: This study explores the integration of AI, particularly large language models (LLMs) like ChatGPT, into educational settings, focusing on the implications for teaching and learning. Through interviews with course coordinators from data science courses at Wageningen University, this research identifies both the benefits and challenges associated with AI in the classroom. While AI tools can streamline tasks and enhance learning, concerns arise regarding students' overreliance on these technologies, potentially hindering the development of essential cognitive and problem solving skills. The study highlights the importance of responsible AI usage, ethical considerations, and the need for adapting assessment methods to ensure educational outcomes are met. With careful integration, AI can be a valuable asset in education, provided it is used to complement rather than replace fundamental learning processes.
