ChatGPT is one of the most common AI softwares that students use. ASU students are divided on whether using this tool will lead to a positive outcome. Some say it helps in their studies, while others worry it affects how much they truly learn.
Paulina Fimbres, a student studying Tourism Development and Management at Arizona State University, said she’s had a class that prompted the use of AI. However, she doesn’t see it as a replacement for learning.
​
“There really is a place and time for it, I feel like it can help you think, but if it's writing a whole essay for you then that's when it’s wrong,” Fimbres said. “There was a class where we were suggested to use AI, but other than that the usage of it has not impacted me too badly.”
Madison Ferreira, a student studying Nutritional Science, mentioned in a podcast interview that ChatGPT can be very useful and it has helped her come up with different nutritional dietary plans for her assignments.
“The first time I noticed the usage of AI was about a year ago and I thought it was all a joke,” Ferreira said. “The more I saw people using it for informational purposes, the more I realized that ChatGPT can actually be very useful. Since then I’ve used it to help me come up with different nutritional dietary plans for my classes and future career.”
According to statistics on Zipdo, 35% of diet plans are using artificial intelligence for personalization now.
Data from the same report also shows that not all students use AI responsibly. 48% of students have admitted that they used AI in ways that violate school policies, even though they don’t view it as dishonest. This raised concerns about academic integrity across campuses.​ This shows a growing tension in education.
As more students turn to AI, the big question becomes what this means for learning in the long run. Is the convenience making it too easy to skip the actual learning part? Are students really absorbing information, or just getting quick answers to turn in? And if AI continues to be used everywhere in coursework without clear boundaries, how will schools make sure students are still doing honest work and actually building the skills they need?
