Abstract
This paper delves into the application of generative artificial intelligence and large language models in the field of education, with a particular focus on the rising trend of large language models. Large language models play a crucial role in intelligent tutoring systems by accurately understanding student queries through deep learning and providing personalized responses. Case studies showcase the exemplary utilization of natural language processing techniques and reasoning engines, albeit facing challenges related to real-time processing and privacy concerns. The latter part of the paper concentrates on the application of generative artificial intelligence and large language models in curiosity-driven learning and the integration of multimodal educational systems, emphasizing the technical frameworks and challenges associated with multimodal integration. Finally, the paper provides insights into future developments, highlighting research on the potential benefits in the field of education, while emphasizing concerns related to ethics and privacy.
