Intelligent Horizons: The Future of AI in Education, Industry, and Beyond is an interdisciplinary edited volume examining how artificial intelligence is transforming education, healthcare, industry, engineering, agriculture, research, law, governance, and society. Bringing together sixteen chapters from researchers and practitioners across diverse disciplines, the book explores both the practical applications and wider implications of AI. Topics include AI-enabled teaching and assessment, generative AI in research, diagnostic imaging and precision medicine, smart manufacturing and supply chains, machine learning for organisational productivity, fire detection, advanced materials, next-generation wireless networks, AI-assisted agriculture, algorithmic bias, surveillance, ethics, governance, the future of work, and human identity. Rather than presenting artificial intelligence solely as a technological development, the volume considers its relationship with human judgement, responsibility, fairness, sustainability, and social progress. It is designed for students, researchers, educators, scientists, engineers, professionals, administrators, policymakers, and readers seeking a multidisciplinary understanding of the opportunities and challenges of an AI-enabled future.
