The range of applications of artificial intelligence (AI) to education is increasing ceaselessly, although its generalization still seems far away. Despite the enormous opportunities that AI can offer to support teaching and learning, the development of applications for higher education carries numerous implications and also ethical risks. Against this context, this contribution aims to offer a review of AI applications in higher education, taking as a starting point the heritage of research developed in the last two decades. It explores the definitions of AI in education and the elements and methods that AI applications could bring to higher education, discussing the challenges that emerge and finally suggesting some conclusions.
