      <abstract>
        <p>Large Language Models (LLMs) are increasingly being used to enhance teaching and learning. This work focused on the Effectiveness of Meta(A), Gemini (B), and ChatGPT (C)  AI in Life Science Library and Teaching Material. A prompt was used to generate AI data in the various LLMs, and the data was analyzed for validity, engagement and timeliness to measure the effectiveness and efficiency. 10 students were engaged, and a well-qualified, experienced processional teacher was engaged in the assessment. The personnel assessed the validity and appropriateness, and the students assessed the engagement capacity as well as the comprehensiveness of the generated data. Both used a 5-point Likert scale. Further analysis, which includes the time of generation. Examples and question count, descriptive statistics, and inferential statistics(Friedman ranking) were done with the aid of AI-assisted Excel software. Apart from the count, the results showed that ChatGPT and Gemini AI proved more effective. Most of the tested data proved that there is no significant difference between the values(p&lt;0,05). This information is crucial for students, lecturers, Liberians and teachers, especially where resources and the environment are limited for learning.</p>
