Personalized learning has emerged as a central paradigm in modern education, emphasizing the adaptation of instructional content, learning pathways, assessment strategies, and feedback mechanisms to meet the unique needs of individual learners. While classical artificial intelligence (AI) has enabled significant progress through adaptive learning systems, recommender engines, and learning analytics. Classical AI faces several limitations, including computational scalability issues and challenges in high-dimensional optimization. Furthermore, it struggles to effectively model uncertainty and the complex interdependencies inherent in human learning processes.
