With the birth of ChatGPT, it has had a strong impact on the education industry, and the education association research is also diverse. This study aims to provide reference and new ideas for academic research in the educational field by analyzing the current research status, research hotspots, and research trends of ChatGPT in the field of education, and to provide some suggestions and new initiatives for education regulatory authorities. This study mainly used literature analysis and bibliometric methods to conduct quantitative and statistical analysis on the selected 452 advanced literature. At the same time, with the help of research tools such as CiteSpace 2022, WORDART2024, and XLSX2024, the data of the literature was input to generate visual charts. Through the interpretation of the charts, conclusions were drawn. This study analyzes the main characteristics of the current research situation through the distribution of literature time, disciplinary specialties, research level, and academic journals. Secondly, the distribution of research hotspots is revealed through keyword frequency statistics and keyword co-occurrence analysis. By analyzing the author's research trends and publishing institutions, it aims to explore the development trends in this field. Finally, this study found that the number of publications on the association between ChatGPT and education showed a steady upward trend, with the main disciplines focused on educational theory and computer application technology, and the publication journals concentrated on university sponsored academic journals and Chinese core journals. The research hotspots revolve around artificial intelligence, with strong intersection between hotspots. The research authors have strong independence and weak correlation. But there is strong integration and correlation between research institutions.
