One of the innovations that has emerged in this era is artificial intelligence (AI). One of the key roles of AI in education is its ability to make learning experiences more personalized and adaptable to individuals. With advanced data analysis, AI can gather information about students' progress and learning preferences. It is hoped that this article can provide a comprehensive view of how this technology is a key driver in achieving better learning goals in the Cybernetics 4.0 era. This study uses a qualitative approach with a focus on analyzing descriptive data in the form of written text. The researcher chooses a qualitative approach to analyze the literature related to the problem being studied. The research method applied in this study is a library research approach. Searches on Google Scholar are conducted using keywords that are relevant to the research variables. The journals used are selected based on the relevance of these keywords.
