The aim of this study is to examine how the teaching of democracy in social studies has been influenced by generative AI. To achieve the objectives of this study, interviews were conducted with high school social studies teachers who reflected on their experiences with this technology. The theoretical framework of the study is based on Robert Dahl's criteria for a democratic process, from which a selection was made. The study's findings, analyzed using Dahl's framework, led to the study's conclusions. The conclusions indicate a diverse range of opinions among the respondents, with difficulty in reaching a consensus, and often individual teachers are divided in their views on generative AI. Many recognize both the advantages and disadvantages of using generative AI in education, particularly regarding democracy.
