Despite the growing recognition of Artificial Intelligence (AI)’s potential for global education, the literature lacks strategic analyses on how to maximize personalized learning and ensure equitable access within the vast and diverse Indian educational system. The objective of this study is to analyze this strategic integration of AI into the Indian educational system, focusing on maximizing personalized learning and ensuring equitable access across diverse socioeconomic contexts, while evaluating current initiatives and the relevance of reporting guidelines, such as the use of Self-Sovereign Identity (SSI). The methodology employed bibliographic and documentary research, alongside the analysis of governmental and sectoral policies. The results indicate that the sustainable implementation of AI is critically dependent on the mitigation of algorithmic bias and the rigorous assurance of data privacy. In conclusion, to balance technological innovation with human-centered pedagogical approaches, maintaining the educator’s fundamental role and fostering collaboration among stakeholders for responsible governance are essential.
