This study examines the influence of an artificial intelligence-based literacy model in history learning on the critical thinking skills of senior high school students in Yogyakarta. The use of artificial intelligence in education has changed how students access information and understand historical material, making it important to examine its impact on critical thinking development. This research uses a quantitative approach with a correlational design. The participants are tenth-grade students involved in history learning supported by artificial intelligence technology. Data were collected through observation and questionnaires, then analyzed using validity, reliability, and Independent T-test. The results show that the artificial intelligence-based literacy model has a positive and significant effect on students’ critical thinking skills. It helps students understand historical content in a more contextual, reflective, and interactive way, while also encouraging learning independence and more critical use of information sources. Therefore, this model can be an innovative strategy to improve learning quality and develop students who are critical and adaptive to technological changes. © 2026 by International Online Journal of Education and Teaching (IOJET).
