The convergence of digital humanities and artificial intelligence: reconfiguring student learning paradigms

The correlation between Artificial Intelligence and digital humanities paves the way to the pivotal transformations in the 21st Century. New technologies and AI tools are being used for assistance in writing and analysingtext through digital tools, which are stepping into the educational sector. The borders separating digital computation and humanistic understandings are reduced. This paper precisely examines the role of AI tools in the field of digital humanities and how they reconstruct the learning process, innovative mind and critical thinking of learners. The study includes some of the theories such as constructionism, universal design for learning, situated learning and cultural history activity theory. These literary frameworks showcase the process of learning through digital mediation, socio-interaction, and a comprehensive environment for learning and collaborative engagement. Moreover, learning through AI in the digital era emphasises knowledge through a collaborative learning approach and aims to enhance the futuristic learning environment. The incorporation of AI in academics fosters the learning and interactions of students as well as protects the emotions, critical thinking and cultural understandings when supervised by the moral frameworks and thoughtful pedagogy. This paper keenly sums up with the futuristic recommendations for academicians, scholars and industrialists seeking to maintain the balance between human and non-human intelligences in the digitalised era.
