Abstract

The introduction of artificial intelligence, ChatGPT, and other machine learning technologies has shaken up numerous industries across the globe. The World Economic Forum Future of Jobs Report 2023 predicts that due to a combination of macro trends and technology adoption, over the next five years jobs in the education industry are expected to grow at least by 10%. Many learners in higher education are integrating the use of AI when attending to their academic work, yet there is not much investigation exploring how they plan and perceive the use of AI whilst completing their academic tasks. Therefore, this chapter aims to (1) explore how learners' intention of using AI affects their language learning behavior and (2) uncover the factors that influence the learners' perceptions toward the usefulness of AI as an academic support. Grounded in the theory of planned behavior (TPB), students from two tertiary education institutions in Malaysia were asked to respond to a series of questions that explored their perspectives on utilizing AI-powered tools to aid their academic writing.
