Abstract

Artificial intelligence, as a relatively new field of technology, has the potential to bring significant changes to how individuals perform daily tasks. Its ability to analyze vast amounts of data and provide personalized support represents one of the key aspects that could influence the academic experience. In this context, the aim of this paper is to explore the extent and manner in which artificial intelligence is used among students (if it is used at all) and to examine its impact on grades, understanding of course material, and overall academic success, based on research and surveys conducted with students at the Faculty of Law, University of Belgrade.

Through the analysis of this topic, we aim to gain insights into how students use artificial intelligence in their studies and identify potential areas for further research and development. Additionally, this study seeks to understand students' personal views on artificial intelligence regarding moral dilemmas and ethical issues arising from its use in an academic context, such as delineating legitimate use from potential misuse, which could undermine the establishment of a fair and ethical academic environment.
