Introduction: in the educational context, the integration of artificial intelligence is transforming the way teachers teach and students learn. However, there are challenges that teachers must face when incorporating artificial intelligence into their pedagogical practice.
Objective: to evaluate the perspectives of Peruvian basic education teachers on the implementation of artificial intelligence in the educational context.
Methods: a quantitative, non-experimental, cross-sectional descriptive study was conducted. The sample consisted of 125 basic education teachers selected through probabilistic sampling. These participants were administered a scale designed to evaluate their perspectives on artificial intelligence, which demonstrated adequate metric properties.
Results: it was found that teachers had a partial knowledge of what artificial intelligence is and its scope. Among the advantages of artificial intelligence, it stands out that it was an effective teaching resource and a necessary tool to provide personalized education. However, among the disadvantages highlighted are concerns that it could foster academic dishonesty, doubts about its reliability, and a lack of confidence in its ability to guarantee the confidentiality of information.
Conclusions: the perspective of basic education teachers on the implementation of artificial intelligence in the educational context is heterogeneous. Although they recognize the disadvantages and have a partial knowledge of what artificial intelligence is and its scope, they show willingness to explore and take advantage of its possibilities in the educational field
