ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE: OPPORTUNITIES AND POTENTIAL RISKS IN PREPARING FOR THE UNT

Abstract

This article explores the impact of artificial intelligence (AI) on the process of preparing for the National Unified Testing (UNT), highlighting both its potential benefits and risks. It examines the advantages and disadvantages of AI tools-such as online platforms, chatbots, and virtual tutors-analyzing their influence on the quality of education, test-takers' access to information, and educational inequality. The article provides real-world examples and offers concrete recommendations for effectively integrating AI into the learning process, maximizing its benefits while mitigating its risks. A survey was conducted to gather data for this analysis. This article examines the role of artificial intelligence (AI) in the preparation process for the Unified National Testing (UNT). UNT is a crucial stage for admission to higher education institutions in Kazakhstan. By analyzing students' knowledge levels and preparation characteristics, AI technologies enable the provision of optimal learning materials, the creation of adaptive learning systems, and the ensuring of effective preparation for the UNT. The article discusses the advantages, challenges, and future perspectives of using AI in UNT preparation. The Unified National Testing (UNT) is the primary pathway for school graduates in the Republic of Kazakhstan to enter universities. Preparing for the UNT is a complex and responsible process that requires significant effort and time from students. Traditional preparation methods often employ a uniform approach to all students, leading to the neglect of their diverse needs. Artificial intelligence (AI) technologies enable the personalization and adaptation of the UNT preparation process, contributing to the improvement of student outcomes.

Additionally: Furthermore, along with the positive aspects of using artificial intelligence in preparation for the UNT, the article provides a deeper analysis of its potential risks, presented with concrete examples.
