“…However, Metaverse education is still an emerging topic, with few efforts made to develop deep systematic approaches to this type of education system. Our prior work attempted to provide a systematic model for Metaverse education from the perspective of non-player characters (NPCs) that tutor students [11]. However, in that work, we did not consider other types of NPCs that would learn alongside the students.…”

The potential of the metaverse in the field of education is gaining increasing attention. The goal is to reduce the cost of learning while increasing the efficiency and ease of learning. However, little work has been done on the systemic and technological aspects of metaverse education as of yet. In this paper, we propose a system to fill this technological gap, which includes a virtual learning system and Web3 blockchain technology in addition to the real world to ensure social interaction in the learning process. The utility and benefit of this system is that it not only provides users with a learning efficiency and environment superior to the physical world, but also ensures security, transparency and fairness of the learning process through an integrated framework.

The potential of the metaverse in the field of education is an area of increasing interest, with many researchers exploring the space to increase the ease and efficacy of student education while reducing time and labor requirements to deliver effective teaching. However, there has been little work into the systematic and technological aspects of delivering education through the metaverse. To fill this gap, we propose a metaverse education system that takes good advantages of virtual reality and Web3 blockchain techologies to create a social learning environment. With this added emphasis on social aspects, learners are able to socialize and engage in collaborative efforts to improve their own knowledge. Using blockchain technology, the system can also help to ensure security and transparency while also keeping progression and grading fair for all participating students.

In response to the burgeoning interest in the Metaverse—a virtual reality-driven immersive digital world—this study delves into the pivotal role of AI in shaping its functionalities and elevating user engagement. Focused on recent advancements, prevailing challenges, and potential future developments, our research draws from a comprehensive analysis grounded in meticulous methodology. The study, informed by credible sources including SD, Scopus, IEEE, and WoS, encompasses 846 retrieved studies. Through a rigorous selection process, 54 research papers were identified as relevant, forming the basis for a specific taxonomy of AI in the Metaverse. Our examination spans diverse dimensions of the Metaverse, encompassing augmented reality, virtual reality, mixed reality, Blockchain, Agent Systems, Intelligent NPCs, Societal and Educational Impact, HCI and Systems Design, and Technical Aspects. Emphasizing the necessity of adopting trustworthy AI in the Metaverse, our findings underscore its potential to enhance user experience, safeguard privacy, and promote responsible technology use. This paper not only sheds light on the scholarly interest in the Metaverse but also explores its impact on human behavior, education, societal norms, and community dynamics. Serving as a foundation for future development and responsible implementation of the Metaverse concept, our research identifies and addresses seven open issues, providing indispensable insights for subsequent studies on the integration of AI in the Metaverse.
