Abstract

The review presents current trends in using Chatbots based on Natural Language Processing (NLP - Neuro-Linguistic Programming) in primary education. It analyzes their use in Physics, Mathematics, Language, and Social Studies. Potential challenges regarding the accuracy of information, acceptance by teachers, learners, and parents, and the ethical dimensions of their use in the educational context are presented. The findings indicate that Chatbots can support the educational process without replacing the human factor.
