The paper explores the application of artificial intelligence (AI) in task-based learning (TBL) in cross-border education, paying close attention to the potential of AI to enhance engagement and learning outcomes. It is, thus, rational from the paper that when AI is integrated with TBL, the outcome of student engagement will improve by 25%, offering personalized experiences that make students adapt themselves according to the needs. Key addressed challenges include cultural sensitivity, data privacy, and the ethical use of AI, whereby the issue of data security had, in turn, raised the eyebrows of the educators. All these are proposed in the study through which equity policy is promoted, established ethical guidelines, and supported international collaboration in emerging trends such as AI-driven personalization and immersive learning environments. In fact, these are going to change global education significantly by preparing students for their connected world.
