Abstract	The use of AI in higher learning institutions has brought a dilemma as it was in the era of using google and Wikipedia causing a lot of academic dishonest. There are two paradigm on this, some sees as opportunity for effective learning and others sees as a challenge in the teaching and learning contributing to rote learning. The author wonders as to why should it be perceived as opportunity at the same time be seen as a challenge. The perceptions of students and lecturers towards this technological advancement is always taken as a shock at the beginning, yet can significantly influence the teaching and learning in institutions as it was in the error of the use of google search and Wikipedia. This paper explores the differing viewpoints of students and lecturers on the use of AI in higher education, by examining the opportunities, challenges, and potential impacts on teaching and learning experiences. Questionnaire and interview were used as data collection tools. The study realized that students knows the use of AI in searching information than their lecturers (72%:22%). Lecturers sees AI facilitates rote learning while students see that is an opportunity to them because the information is accessed in short time. Finally they all suggest that there should be clear policies on the use of AI in teaching and learning and having acceptable ratio of human and AI interaction in the teaching and learning. The study concludes by calling upon in-service training to lecturers and other education stakeholders to have proper use of AI for effective teaching and learning.
