Introduction

The application of Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies, particularly generative AI chatbots, into higher education institutions (HEIs) is reshaping the landscape of academic environments worldwide. As HEIs navigate the complexities of a rapidly evolving technological era, the future of AI chatbots in higher education presents both unprecedented opportunities and challenges (Sain & Hebebci, 2023). With the emergence of generative AI chatbots like ChatGPT, HEIs are at the forefront of a technological revolution that promises to revolutionize traditional teaching and learning, and research paradigms. Generative AI has the power to

revolutionize how things are done and it is classified into text-to-text, text-to-audio, text-to- video, and many more (Aydin & Karaarslan, 2023). A generative AI chatbot is a conversational AI tool built on natural language processing (NLP) and deep learning techniques with the ability to mimic human writing style, and abilities, and create human-like text in real-time. It generates text that resembles that of a human. For example, ChatGPT is regarded as a generative AI chatbot with the ability to generate eloquent and logical human-like text and conservations in real time (Kim, Kim & Baek, 2024). The utilization of generative AI chatbots in educational settings opens new avenues for interactive learning, innovative assessment methods, and data-driven insights for continuous improvement within the academic ecosystem. However, alongside these promising advancements, HEIs also face a myriad of challenges in harnessing the full potential of AI chatbots while safeguarding academic integrity, addressing ethical concerns, and ensuring equitable access to educational resources (Mahmud, 2024). As HEIs strive to adapt to the increasing technological dependence on AI tools, it becomes imperative to explore the multifaceted implications of AI chatbots in higher education (Dempere, Modugu, Hesham & Ramasamy, 2023). This study aims to delve into the prospects of generative AI chatbots in HEIs, examining the opportunities they present for enhancing student learning outcomes, academic productivity, institutional efficiency, and research processes. Furthermore, the study seeks to address the critical challenges that HEIs may encounter in the application of generative AI chatbots, such as academic integrity concerns, user input understanding, ethical considerations, and privacy implications. By conducting a comprehensive analysis of the future trajectory of generative AI chatbots in higher education, this study endeavors to provide valuable insights into the evolving educational landscape and propose strategic solutions to mitigate potential risks and maximize the benefits of generative AI chatbots. Through a nuanced exploration of the opportunities, challenges, and implications of generative AI chatbots in HEIs, this research aims to contribute to the ongoing discourse on the integration of AI, especially generative AI chatbots in higher education and pave the way for informed decision-making and effective implementation strategies in the digital age of academia.

Problem statement

The future higher education institutions (HEIs) are turning towards AI technological-driven. The future where technology is the center of educational settings and operations. According to Ahmad (2020) and Mustar and Wright (2010), HEIs will be technologically dependent in the future. The technological dependence of higher education will be driven by AI technology. For

example, the emergence of ChatGPT in November 2022 has redefined how student assessments and research are conducted and raised issues of ethical, privacy, and academic integrity concerns. However, the future of generative AI chatbots like ChatGPT is uncertain in higher education (Elbanna & Armstrong, 2024). The uncertainty means more research into the potential future of AI and understanding the current dual impact in higher education institutions (HEIs). Generative AI chatbot applications in higher education present positive and negative consequences. According to Ilieva, Yankova, Klisarova-Belcheva, Dimitrov, Bratkov and Angelov (2023), AI chatbots can promote critical thinking skills through interactive conversations that prompt students to analyze information and consider diverse viewpoints. The author further suggests that AI tools such as ChatGPT provide support in various academic tasks, such as idea generation, research, and writing, streamlining academic processes and enhancing student and academic productivity. However, academicians advise that HEIs to develop a flexible assessment evaluation strategy to accommodate the AI chatbots (Adeshola & Adepoju, 2023). Furthermore, the risk of bias and dissemination of false information by AI chatbots raises concerns about the accuracy and reliability of educational content (Ilieva et al., 2023). Inadequate assessment design involving generative AI chatbots may also impact the validity and effectiveness of student evaluations, requiring careful consideration in educational settings. Despite the potential of AI chatbots in higher education, the dual effect on student experience and performance is conflicting (Wu & Yu, 2024). Then, this study aimed to examine existing literature on the future of generative AI chatbots in higher education institutions (HEIs). The findings from the study promote a better understanding of the future, opportunities, challenges, and strategies to mitigate the challenges of generative AI chatbots in higher education.

Research objectives

The application of generative AI chatbots continues to be an evolving discussion and a major concern in higher education. This study is guided by these objectives: ñ To explore the future of generative AI chatbots in higher education, ñ To explore the challenges higher education may face in the future in applying generative AI chatbots, ñ To propose solutions to mitigating the identified challenges.

Research methodology-Narrative Literature Review (NLR)

Several literature reviews can be used to understand the future of generative AI chatbots in higher education. Among them is the narrative literature review (NLR). According to Chukwuere (2023), the NLR methodology is discussed as a valuable approach for conducting exploratory research. It explores publications that explain the current research topic and existing viewpoints (Rother, 2007). NLR is highlighted for its flexibility in synthesizing existing research on a specific topic, identifying gaps in knowledge, and providing a comprehensive understanding of the subject matter (Chukwuere, 2023; Byrne, 2016). However, it is noted that narrative reviews may lack rigor and replicability (Chukwuere, 2023), and there is a risk of bias and subjectivity in the analysis process. It implies that NLR has no specified steps or guidelines. A narrative literature review (NLR) is used in exploratory research as applied as demonstrated in the study by Jimenez, Gray, Di Michele, Said, Reed and Kench (2023) in the exploration of educational interventions in Medical Radiation Sciences. The methodology allows for a broad examination of the current evidence, providing a holistic view of the topic. This methodology enables the researchers to synthesize information from diverse sources and present a cohesive narrative that highlights key themes and findings. Additionally, a narrative review can help identify gaps in the existing literature, suggest areas for further research, and offer insights for practice based on the collective knowledge available. The collection of knowledge involves a search in the synthesizing of findings from peer-reviewed materials (Green, Johnson & Adams,

2006). By incorporating a narrative approach, researchers can effectively communicate complex information, facilitate understanding, and contribute to the ongoing development of educational practices in the field of medical radiation sciences (Jimenez et al., 2023). In this study, NLR assisted the author in examining the future of generative AI chatbots in higher education by sourcing existing academic material across different databases like Google Scholar, Scopus, and many others using pre-defined keywords. The author identified keywords that guided the search, for example, the keyword includes but are not limited to “academic use of AI chatbots”, “artificial Intelligence (AI) in higher education”, “ChatGPT”, “generative AI chatbots use in higher education”, “higher education institutions (HEIs)”, and “higher education”. The sourced materials enable the author to identify research gaps, current discussions, and challenges in the topic and able the researcher to propose mitigating solutions and strategies to address the challenges. Eligibility and criteria

The ability to search for the right academic articles depends on the set eligibility and criteria. According to Dehkordi, Mazaheri, Ibrahim, Dalvand and Gheshlagh (2021), at the time the research questions and potential database to source the paper are identified, the searching methods, screening criteria, eligibility checks, data sourcing, and analysis will be specified. The eligibility of any article can be subjected to some period like in months and years, in this case, articles published between 2021 to February 2024 were considered. Also, when the initial article screening ends, potential articles will undergo a selection process through inclusion and exclusion criteria (Kumarasamy, Sabarimurugan, Madurantakam, Lakhotiya, Samiappan, Baxi & Jayaraj, 2019). The inclusion and exclusion criteria assist the researcher in avoiding bias in choosing a given article (Table 1).
