Artificial intelligence (AI) transforms agile project management (APM) by enhancing efficiency and decision-making but poses challenges like job displacement, bias, and data privacy concerns. This study reconnoiters AI types, including rule-based AI, machine learning (ML), neural networks, and their APM applications: chatbots, image recognition, and predictive analytics. Prospects show AI's potential benefits and hurdles. Upholding ethical development is crucial for AI's secure, beneficial integration in APM, ensuring alignment with societal values while advancing technology responsibly. The study further presents the benefits of AI in the APM, followed by the challenges. It is crucial to consider AI's implications and guarantee that its development and deployment are ethical, secure, and beneficial for everyone. Finally, the future of AI in the APM is categorically presented. As AI continues to evolve, it will undoubtedly bring benefits and challenges, and it is essential to develop AI responsibly in a way that aligns with ethical values and protects individual rights.
