The research design used for the study is descriptive survey. The population of the study comprises of the all the teachers in public secondary schools in FCT. The sample for the study is 320 respondents. The researcher formulated a questionnaire titled Artificial Intelligence on Curriculum Implementation Questionnaire (AICIQ). The instrument was subjected to face and content validation using two lecturers from Educational Management department university Abuja. Reliability of the instrument was determined using test retest method. The first and second results obtained from the instrument were correlated and it yielded a coefficient of 0.86 which is high enough for the study. Descriptive statistics was used to analyze data collected for the research questions and hypothesis formulated for the study. The findings of the study revealed that artificial intelligence aided the implementation of school curriculum in the public secondary schools in FCT. The findings also revealed that shortage of Al facilities, poor implementation of ICT policies, high cost of Al, unstable power supply, poor internet service, high cost of maintenance and poor funding of Al programme are the problems militating against deployment of Al for effective curriculum implementation in public secondary schools in Federal Capital Territory, Abuja, Nigeria. The findings finally, established that there is positive relationship between artificial intelligences deployment and effective curriculum implementation in the secondary schools. Based on this, the study recommended that the government should increase funding of public secondary schools in FCT to enable adequate provision of Al facilities in all the public secondary schools to support effective curriculum implementation in the schools.
