Thus, the blending of education with ICT has shifted the education system from traditional classroom teacher centric to flexible anywhere anytime (24x7) learner centric model. AI is the best way to effectively address students and enables organization to discover their capabilities in different aspects. Today robots are accomplishing array of simple and complex tasks in various organizations.

The application of AI in higher education institution in this complex and competitive environment is associated with many contemporary challenges like high cost, lack of expert personnel, weak soft skills, lack of social skill, ethical behavior and sentiments, technical disorder, workforce displacement etc. Therefore, machines are not yet ready to replace human but are contributing a lot in enhancing human capabilities.
