Abstract
Artificial intelligence (AI) is changing the structure, goals, and tasks of society. The possible emergence of superintelligence within a few years may change the world order.
The tasks of education as a means of shaping the future and the implementation of the main quality criteria need to be reconsidered. The formation of attitudes must become the most important component of the educational process for the continued existence of society and coexistence with AI.
Using research on AI and interviews, information has been obtained about the use of AI now and in the future.
The two most important scenarios are the coexistence of AI, robots, and human communities and the merging of AI and humans. To prevent negative scenarios, education must be oriented toward cooperation between AI and humanity.
A comparison of AI functioning and psychology reveals similarities between human and AI thinking. The future of the teaching profession is determined by building friendly relations with AI in a world in which knowledge is the main wealth, while the significance and place of work and education in social life have changed substantially.

Keywords: artificial intelligence, attitudes, cyborgs, education, future, robots
