A STUDY ON THE IMPACT OF AI APPS USAGE AMONG STUDENTS

Artificial Intelligence (AI) applications have become integral to modern education, offering students tools to enhance learning, productivity, and time management. This study explores the impact of AI app usage among students, analyzing its effects on academic performance, study habits, and overall learning experiences. Through a survey of 140 respondents in Coimbatore, key findings indicate widespread adoption of AI tools, with ChatGPT being the most frequently used. The research highlights improvements in academic performance, confidence, and time management among students while also identifying concerns such as over-reliance, difficulties in understanding AI-generated outputs, and ethical considerations. Statistical analysis (Chi-Square tests) suggests no significant correlation between students’ education levels and AI usage purposes or between age groups and challenges faced. The study recommends AI literacy programs, ethical guidelines, and a balanced approach to AI integration in education.
