  This paper examines the historical foundations, current practices, and
emerging challenges for Artificial Intelligence in Education (AIED) within
broader AI practices. It highlights AIED's unique and rich potential for
contributing to the current AI policy and practices, especially in the context
of responsible AI. It also discusses the key gaps in the AIED field, which need
to be addressed by the community to elevate the field from a cottage industry
to the level where it will deservedly be seen as key to advancin AI research
and practical applications. The paper offers a five-point manifesto aimed to
revitalise AIED' contributions to education and broader AI community,
suggesting enhanced interdisciplinary collaboration, a broadened understanding
of AI's impact on human functioning, and commitment to setting agendas for
human-centred educational innovations.This approach positions AIED to
significantly influence educational technologies to achieve genuine positive
impact across diverse societal segments.
