This article addresses the need for a comprehensive understanding of the rapidly evolving field of Artificial Intelligence (AI) in education, given its potential to transform teaching and learning practices. The study analyzed 1,234 articles from the Web of Science database, using bibliometric techniques and topic modeling. Quantitative analyses of publication trends, citation impacts, and collaboration patterns were conducted using the R programming language, and Latent Dirichlet Allocation (LDA) was employed to uncover latent themes and potential research gaps. The study reveals a dramatic growth in research output, with an annual growth rate of 47.9%. China and the United States emerge as dominant contributors, collectively accounting for 38% of publications. Key research themes include AI in language learning, AI ethics and policy, and AI literacy. The findings highlight the need for more inclusive and diverse research efforts to address the unique challenges and opportunities of AI in education in across socioeconomic contexts.
