The concept of Artificial Intelligence has become fashionable in less than a year. However, despite the fact that it has been used in everyone's daily life for years, the irruption in the media of the Chat GPT effect has generated doubts, fears and questions about its potential use to replace human thought. For this reason, people begin to talk about another before and after its uses in educational settings, without realizing that, currently, what is normal and habitual is what is dynamic, changing and innovative. 

In this Seminar, we will tackle the topic that evolves daily and that we must learn to face together as a society to make the best use of it. The explosion of articles on artificial intelligence, after the massive presentation of the latest advances in the area of generative conversation programs, leads us to reflect on the need to clarify whether this really constitutes intelligence, what makes it different from human intelligence, how It is its work structure and what impact it will have on our daily life, on science and on education.
