While the literature on AI education often uses the terms AI literacy and AI competency interchangeably, Chiu et al. (2024) made a distinction between the two.
They posited that AI literacy refers to an individual’s capacity to explain the operational mechanisms of AI technologies and their societal implications, along with the ability to use these technologies ethically and responsibly and to engage in effective communication and collaboration in diverse contexts.
