Abstract

Generative artificial intelligence (GenAI) can be used by engineering students to improve their learning, but it also can be used in unethical or inappropriate ways that might reduce professional competence.This study investigated student opinions about ChatGPT, a popular GenAI tool, to determine a starting point for AI literacy instruction.Results revealed general positive attitudes towards GenAI, inflated trust of its outputs, and a wide variability of ethical opinions.Students with more experience using ChatGPT were more likely than students with little or no experience to think that using ChatGPT for engineering school and professional tasks is ethical.The prevalence of students using GenAI tools, along with their optimism in GenAI outputs, indicates that there is an immediate and pressing need for AI literacy instruction in first-year engineering programs.
