Modern ways of learning require the use of innovative educational tools in all disciplines. The development of information and communication technology has provided an innovation known as the virtual laboratory. Such a type of educational tool will help students and their trainees. It will facilitate the experimental activity, which will lead to a better understanding of the subject matter by the students. This study aims to reveal the quality of the virtual laboratory integrated into blended learning the discipline artificial intelligence. It must combine all sub-area presented with their characteristic algorithms. The sub-areas will be divided into groups of tasks. Each group will task have three difficulty levels. One task can be solved with more than one kind of an algorithm area. These solutions can be compared and visualized to see where the differences are. Presented is model of work of the virtual laboratory. The work of the laboratory includes four basic modules: theoretical presentation, graphical presentation, sample tasks and individual tasks. It is divided into these basic modules to give learners a chance to catch up on a lesson if they have missed it. The laboratory should be web-based and therefore the only restriction on its use is the Internet connection. This will make it very practical and convenient for both parties - students and students. The benefits of training with this type of laboratory are also presented. The aim of the article is to showcase the work of this kind of web-based laboratory. How it will be a powerful tool for removing unnecessary assumptions and reducing the time for learning the material.
