Abstract

This article explores the potential of artificial intelligence (AI) as a powerful tool for fostering creativity in gifted students within the framework of STEM educational environments in Ukraine. In the context of the ongoing war and the challenges of transforming the national education system, the ability to think creatively, solve non-standard problems, and work interdisciplinarily has become a vital skill for the younger generation. Special attention is given to the psychological and pedagogical characteristics of creativity as a dynamic personality trait in gifted learners, including divergent thinking, cognitive flexibility, and originality. The article highlights how AI technologies, when integrated into STEM educational environments, can stimulate these qualities by providing open-ended tasks, adaptive feedback, and opportunities for safe experimentation. The research presents a number of practical educational initiatives implemented in Ukrainian schools and educational hubs — such as national AI hackathons, 3D modeling platforms, VR/AR-integrated STEM camps, and robotics-based learning systems. These examples demonstrate how students use AI to create meaningful projects, ranging from virtual science labs to AI-based applications with social impact. The article emphasizes the importance of teacher facilitation, ethical guidelines, and governmental support for the integration of AI into the curriculum. AI is viewed not as a replacement for educators, but as a catalyst for the development of individual learning trajectories and creative capacities. As Ukraine moves toward European integration and post-war recovery, investing in the creative potential of students through AI-driven STEM education is both a strategic and humanistic priority. The article argues that fostering creativity through artificial intelligence may help form a generation capable of responding to global challenges with innovative, interdisciplinary, and socially responsible solutions.
