Abstract

Artificial Intelligence (AI) is quickly changing many industries, including education, but many college students still not fully aware of the potential in both positive and negative upon engaging with it. This study investigates the awareness and engagement with AI among college students, focusing on how they perceive and utilize AI in their academic routines. The data was collected through interviews to assess students’ knowledge, experiences, and attitudes toward AI. The findings reveal varying degrees of AI awareness, with engagement influenced by academic exposure, accessibility, and personal interest. The findings reveal that students acknowledge the usefulness of AI in tasks such as research, writing, and time management. However, concerns were also raised about overdependence, reduced critical thinking, and ethical challenges. Factors like academic exposure, accessibility, and personal motivation were found to influence student engagement. The study emphasizes the need to integrate AI education to promote responsible and informed usage. By understanding how students interact with AI, it will guide students in developing essential skills and maintaining academic integrity in an AI-integrated learning environment.
