Abstract

The current scientific and technological development has generated momentous changes in the different spheres of society's life. Today, reference is made to the fourth Scientific-Technological Revolution that has introduced important transformations for the benefit of society. These advancements are innumerable, but at the same time, they have somewhat blurred what is beneficial or not for the human being with the use of Artificial Intelligence (AI).

The frontier of its use generates multiple controversies and faces profound ethical dilemmas. It is not so evident that the use of AI is always useful; it sometimes generates conflicts, contradictions, and dilemmas that are not always shared by everyone, as well as the extent to which it can be used and the degree of its positive or negative impact. Then, what to say when AI attempts to replace human thought, especially in higher education. The benefits of Artificial Intelligence in higher education, particularly in the personalized attention of students, should not be forgotten. However, these particularities become conflicts associated with learning, which questions the legitimacy of its use. For this reason, the fundamental focus of this study is to substantiate, within the benefits and limitations for students and professors in higher education, the ethical limits on which the use of Artificial Intelligence as an educational technology rests, combined with the use of active methodologies to promote multiple intelligences in the students' learning process and the ways to solve their conflicts.
