Across the board, artificial intelligence is having a big impact on the marketplace, especially in higher education. Through the process of a thorough analysis of the literature, the current research concentrated on the growing roles that artificial intelligence is playing in higher education. Information was acquired by means of a methodical examination of academic publications on artificial intelligence that were disseminated in universities. One of the major industries that has seen revolutionary transformation recently is education on a global scale. This is mostly due to the global digital revolution that is occurring. In the past, the standard Indian classroom consisted of students sitting through an hour-long lesson during which the teacher discussed the material without using any visual aids. Presently, learners as well as educators have an easier time of it because of digital technology. With its novel audio–video feature, digital education is especially useful for children, as it enhances their cognitive abilities, making learning enjoyable for all levels of learners. Schools are attempting to create a more inclusive and interactive learning environment in the classroom by implementing digital teaching solutions more frequently. Over the past few years, there has been a noticeable increase of online live as well as virtual classrooms in India at various learning levels. There is a lot of room for technological integration with the education sector as a result of the development of technologies like virtualization, cloud computing, and virtual data centers. This study aims to provide a summary of digital education, its constituent parts, its advantages in India, its potential future applications, and any obstacles that an Indian society may face in its transition to digital education.
