This study describes the teachers’ role toward Artificial Intelligence (AI) in the teaching and learning process. This study applies library research. The analysis shows that AI’s role in education is to increase intelligence and assist in carrying out effective and efficient learning activities. Several AI tools can be used by teachers including Virtual Mentors, Voice Assistants (VA), Smart Content, Presentation Translator, Global Courses, Automatic Assessment, and Personalized Learning. Several benefits of using AI in education are improving the quality of the education system, and increasing the effectiveness of learning as an adaptive learning. AI provides feedback and recommendations, increases efficiency, enhances the teaching experience, personalized and customized learning, minimizes error, saves time, automates fundamental and routine tasks, is adaptable to student needs, monitors students' progress, and modifies the teachers’ role as facilitators. Therefore, the use of AI must be done wisely and consider its impact on teachers and students as a whole. However, no system can replace the role and significance of the teacher's role, knowledge, expertise, experience, and desire to provide the best for the students. The basis of every use of technology is to continue to prioritize the essence of teaching, namely managing the morale and behavior of students. The activities of educating, guiding, and matters relating to the student’s character can only be carried out by humans. The teacher's work cannot be replaced by AI technology. AI technology only assists teachers in the classroom and enhances student learning, so its existence should be utilized optimally following its capacity and purpose. The importance of the teacher's role must be maintained so that humanist values and affection in an educational process can endure and be maintained in line with the essence of that education, namely humanizing individuals.
