| Sumario: | Artificial Intelligence (AI) has arrived to transform many aspects of human endeavor, including the field of education. The objective of this research was to analyze the uses of Artificial Intelligence in the context of higher education, specifically focusing on the areas in which it is applied and the purposes it serves. A systematic review of the Scopus database was conducted, following the PRISMA protocol. The initial screening process narrowed 377 documents down to 33 that met the inclusion criteria and passed a quality-of-evidence analysis. The review identified several uses of AI by institutions for both administrative and educational purposes. Among the educational applications, language teaching and sports were the most prevalent. In the administrative field, process optimization was the dominant use. AI is being increasingly used to enhance teaching processes and is being integrated in various ways to broaden opportunities for both students and educators. However, there remain several gaps and challenges associated with its implementation, which should be addressed in future research. |
