Abstract

Artificial Intelligence has greatly revolutionized education in many aspects. Today, AI-enabled language models, such as ChatGPT, are gaining popularity due to their characteristics and benefits. However, users also consider them a threat to educational integrity and purposes. This research examined ChatGPT usage among students in the United Arab Emirates (UAE), their views, concerns, and perceived ethics. The data was gathered from 388 students from two universities in Al Ain city using Yamane’s formula. Findings showed that students consider ChatGPT a revolutionary technology that helps students in many ways. The gathered data showed that the effect of ChatGPT Usage remained significant on students’ views. The path analysis also supported the second hypothesis, proposing the significant effect of ChatGPT on Students’ Concerns. Finally, the findings also indicated the validation of the final hypothesis, showing the significant effect of ChatGPT Usage on the Perceived Ethics among the students in the UAE. Therefore, this study concluded that using ChatGPT in education has useful and concerning effects on educational integrity. However, implementing practical guidelines can assist in making informed decisions and shaping policies within educational institutions. Recognizing the complexities and importance of ChatGPT usage, teachers and policymakers can keep a balance by leveraging Artificial Intelligence technology to improve education while upholding ethical practices that promote critical thinking, originality, and integrity among students.
