International Association for Computer Information Systems (IACIS) Conference • 2025 • Conference Paper
This study examines how generative AI is impacting college students and faculty, using survey data from 114 students and interviews with 18 professors to compare their perceptions, usage patterns, and concerns. Results show that students view AI as a helpful academic tool, especially for managing workload while faculty remain more cautious, highlighting ethical issues and the need for clearer institutional guidelines.
