Resumo


The first generative artificial intelligence chatbot (ChatGPT) was launched in November 2022. Since then, generative AI has had a significant impact on the educational process, sparking intense debates about its benefits and drawbacks. This paper uses a systematic review methodology to synthesize evidence across multiple educational dimensions, including current research trends, data privacy, ethical concerns, equity challenges, classroom applications, and future directions for generative AI. The results are discussed inside a framework that primarily understands generative AI as a transformative learning technology, emphasizing the need for robust policies to ensure its ethical and effective integration into elementary education.
