This exploratory study examines the use of Extended Reality (XR) technologies to improve AI learning. Twelve business students tested three XR applications — mobile Augmented Reality (AR), headset AR, and headset Virtual Reality (VR) — focusing on AI concepts such as k-means clustering and neural networks. Focus group discussions revealed that XR technologies provide immersive, interactive experiences that enhance understanding of complex AI concepts. Students appreciated the hands-on interactivity, though preferences varied between VR and AR. Well-known issues such as motion sickness and accessibility were noted. Our findings suggest integrating XR with traditional methods to create a more effective AI learning approach, highlighting XR’s potential to equip business students with essential AI skills.enAI educationmixed realitynon-expertsText/Conference Paper10.1145/3670653.3677506
