Drawing on Anderson and Krathwohl\u2019s (2001) Revised Bloom\u2019s Taxonomy, this study examines the alignment of AI-generated learning tasks with specific cognitive process levels, alongside pre-service teachers\u2019 evaluations of this alignment. Adopting an Instructional Design Case Studies approach, the research involved 200 fourth-year Primary Education students, organised into 50 working groups. Qualitative analyses reveal that lower-&nbsp;and intermediate-level tasks were more frequently assessed as aligned, whereas higher-order tasks showed greater ambiguity and misalignment. The findings position generative AI not as a substitute for teachers\u2019 instructional design competence, but as a reflective mediator supporting&nbsp;learning&nbsp;task&nbsp;design&nbsp;and&nbsp;professional AI&nbsp;literacy.&nbsp;The&nbsp;contribution&nbsp;will discuss&nbsp;both&nbsp;the strengths and limitations of AI-generated responses.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Keywords<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Generative&nbsp;AI;&nbsp;Instructional&nbsp;design;&nbsp;Teacher&nbsp;education.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Bibliografia<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Abu Eideh, B.
