Annotation: The article is devoted to researching the potential of generative artificial intelligence models in teaching cal- culus to students in IT degree programs. The relevance of the work is driven by the need to automate teachers’ routine tasks, personalize learning, and reduce cognitive load while maintaining the quality of education. The article outlines a methodology for applying generative models to teaching calculus, which ensures a balance between automation and the development of students’ analytical thinking. A systematization of the areas for us- ing generative artificial intelligence in teaching calculus is provided. A specific case study on the application of generative models in calculus education is considered; a system of prompts was developed and tested in teach- ing practice. An empirical study employing a survey was conducted, involving 69 first-year students majoring in “Fundamental Informatics”. The results showed that the student experience of using generative networks in studying calculus is represented by the following activities: solving problems with step-by-step explanations (67 %), checking their own solutions (62 %), preparing for exams and tests (52 %), explaining theoretical ma- terial (57 %), and generating examples and problems for practice (34 %). Both advantages and challenges of using generative models in education are noted. It is concluded that generative models are advisable for use not only as an auxiliary tool for students but also as a resource for teachers. The results obtained can be used in developing educational technologies for mathematical disciplines and methodological approaches for the correct application of artificial intelligence in learning.
