Abstract
At present, Artificial Intelligence (AI) is fully integrated in our society and, thanks to recent developments in generative AI, it has burst into Education at a dizzying pace. The aim of this paper is to reflect on the benefits that AI can bring in this area within Spanish Universities, as well as on the risks that it may entail. To this end, an initial positioning of the current framework will be made; some of the possible applications of AI in Education will be reviewed, from a realistic and methodological point of view; some technological tools and use cases will be compiled; and a series of keys for an effective implementation in the Spanish University System will be proposed, focusing on the challenges and risks at the technological, pedagogical, organizational, legislative, and ethical levels.
