This paper explores how microlearning, combined with artificial intelligence (AI), is transforming the field of personalized education. Microlearning, which involves delivering educational content in small, easily digestible segments, has emerged as an efficient methodology for enhancing knowledge retention and student engagement. AI, particularly generative AI, can facilitate the creation of content tailored to the specific needs of each learner, optimizing both the learning experience and academic outcomes. The article reviews recent studies highlighting how AI-driven personalization, combined with the short learning capsules characteristic of microlearning, can significantly improve student motivation and performance. Success stories are analyzed, and the ethical and technical challenges of this technological integration are discussed. The paper concludes that artificial intelligence, applied to microlearning, has the potential to revolutionize education by offering more flexible, personalized, and accessible learning experiences for students; however, it also considers whether, in the long term, it will bring benefits or, on the contrary, negatively impact students' well-being and depth of knowledge.
