  • Abstract:
  • Artificial Intelligence (AI) is transforming the global landscape, including the domains of education and workforce development. This research explores the role and potential of AI in enhancing rural education and equipping the future workforce with skills necessary for the digital economy. The study delves into how AI-driven tools, such as personalized learning platforms, intelligent tutoring systems, and data analytics, can bridge the educational divide between rural and urban areas, offering quality education and targeted skill development to underprivileged regions. Key focus areas include assessing the adoption of AI technologies in rural schools, evaluating their effectiveness in addressing challenges such as teacher shortages and lack of resources, and examining how AI can facilitate vocational training tailored to local economies. The research also investigates the socio-economic and infrastructural barriers to AI implementation in rural settings and proposes actionable strategies to overcome them. Rural communities face unique educational challenges, including a shortage of qualified teachers, limited access to advanced learning materials, and a lack of exposure to modern technological tools. These limitations often result in lower educational attainment levels and fewer opportunities for students to acquire the skills required for the evolving job market. As the global economy becomes increasingly reliant on technology-driven skills, it is imperative to prepare the future workforce, including those in rural areas, for roles that demand digital proficiency and adaptability.
