Matrix of artificial intelligence tools in the professional field of future computer scientists

Importance. In the context of the rapid integration of artificial intelligence technologies into various fields of professional activity, their use in the training of future specialists is becoming particularly relevant. The development of a matrix of artificial intelligence tools used in a specific professional field will allow for a systematic approach to integrating artificial intelligence into the training of specialists for a specific sector of the economy. The purpose of the study is to compile a matrix of artificial intelligence tools that IT specialists use to solve professional tasks. Materials and Methods. The study is carried out using a set of methods: scientific literature analysis on the integration of artificial intelligence into education and professional activities of IT specialists; study of regulatory documents (Federal State Educational Standard for Higher Education in 09.03.03 “Applied Informatics” field); teacher surveys, pedagogical observations. The empirical base of the research included experimental work at the Institute of Engineering and Technology and the Derzhavin Lyceum of Derzhavin Tambov State University. The artificial intelligence tools considered technological solutions that IT specialists use to solve professional tasks. Results and Discussion. During the research, for the first time, a matrix of artificial intelligence tools is compiled that IT specialists use to solve professional tasks. ChatGPT, DeepSeek, YandexGPT, Perplexity AI, GigaChat, and Mistral AI tools are used to generate multi-level programming tasks, theory for age-appropriate lectures, and step-by-step instructions for laboratory work, Gamma for automatically creating visually appealing presentations, Copilot, Cursor, and Bubble for simplifying the creation of advanced programs, ZipWP – for deploying websites based on the WordPress engine (CMS), Rows and Rose AI – for creating interactive tables, MindsDB – to integrate predictive models directly into databases and formulate predictive queries, tttLRM is used to convert photo objects into 3D models, and StAItial AI Echo is used to generate 3D worlds from promptes (queries) and images. Conclusion. The novelty of the work consists in developing a matrix of artificial intelligence tools that IT specialists use to solve professional tasks. The perspective of the research lies in the development of practical tasks on the use of technological solutions based on AI in the framework of specialized disciplines or integrated courses.
