This study examines the development of research related to virtual laboratories and artificial intelligence in education. With the assistance of VOSviewer, this study aims to conduct computational mapping on bibliometric data of articles on the keywords: artificial intelligence, virtual laboratories, and education. The method used in this research is bibliometric analysis using VOSviewer. Article data obtained from Scopus-based data, article titles, and abstracts are used to guide the search process by referring to the keywords "laboratorium virtual" and "artificial intelligence in education". It found 359 allegedly relevant articles. The study period used as study material in this study was for the last 5.5 years, namely from 2018 to June 2023. The results of laboratorium virtual and artificial intelligence research in education can be separated into 3 terms, namely artificial intelligence, laboratorium virtual, and education. The term artificial intelligence has 304 links with a total link strength of 12065, the term Laboratorium virtual has 416 links with a total link strength of 5451 links with an accuracy of 212 terms, and the term education has 399 links with a total link strength of 3142 accuracies of 113. The analysis results indicate a significant increase in research related to virtual laboratories and artificial intelligence in education over the past four years. However, the relationship between virtual laboratories and artificial intelligence in education is still relatively rare. In fact, there is no existing relationship between virtual laboratories and artificial intelligence. Based on this information, the opportunity for developing research on virtual laboratories based on artificial intelligence in the field of education is substantial.
