Research design of this study was descriptive survey. The population of the study comprises all the principals and teaching staff in the one hundred nine (109) public Post-Basic Education and Career Development (PBECD) Abuja. The sample size for the study was three hundred and fifty (350) comprising the total population of 39 principals (Supervisors and 311 teachers selected from the secondary schools using a simple random sampling techniques. The instrument for data collection was the structured questionnaire developed by the researcher titled “AI and Instructional Supervision and Curriculum implementation Questionnaire (AIISCIQ). The questionnaire is developed on four (4) point rating scale provided for the respondents to choose from, they are: Strongly Agree (SA) – 4, Agree (A) - 3, Disagree (D) – 2, Strongly Disagree (SD)- 1. The instrument was face validated by three experts, two from Educational Administration and Planning, in the Department of Educational Foundations and one expert from English education in University of Abuja. To ascertain the reliability of the instrument, the questionnaire was administered to ten (10), principals and ten (10) staff for trial-testing in some school which were not part of the study in Abuja. A reliability estimate was computed using Cronbach Alpha reliability coefficient which gave the value of 0.95. The data obtained from this study were subjected to statistical analysis. Frequencies and simple percentages were used to analyze the total number of respondents who completed the questionnaires. Pearson Product Moment Correlation was used to test all the five hypotheses. The result showed that artificial intelligence aids effective instructional supervision in in Post-Basic Education and Career Development (PBECD) in Abuja. The study also established that artificial intelligence support effective curriculum implementation in in Post-Basic Education and Career Development (PBECD) in Abuja. Based on the findings, the study recommends that FCT secondary school board should provide artificial intelligences facilities in all Post-Basic Education and Career Development (PBECD) in Abuja, since AI influences instructional supervision and curriculum implementation. FCT secondary school board should constantly organize capacity building for Instructional Supervisors and teachers to improve their digital skills.
