Resum

La Intel·ligència Artificial (IA) ha estat objecte d'estudi en diverses disciplines tecnològiques i científics, però darrerament ha començat a investigar-se al camp de l'educació. Les innombrables possibilitats que aquesta tecnologia digital pot oferir a les escoles ia l'educació superior sembla que són inspiradores i innovadores. Tot i això, també cal començar a estudiar els usos inicials que els estudiants fan de la fàcilment accessible IA generativa.

Aquest article descriu la investigació duta a terme a la Facultat de Psicologia, Ciències de l'Educació i de l'Esport Blanquerna (Universitat Ramon Llull) i proporciona evidència sobre com, amb quina freqüència i per què els estudiants universitaris utilitzen la IA generativa de manera natural i espontània.

S'han recollit dades qualitatives de dos grups d'estudiants (graus de Psicologia i Educació) a través de qüestionaris i s'han analitzat mitjançant Anàlisi del Discurs (DA). Sembla que algunes conclusions estan alineades amb la literatura recent i mostren la necessitat d'una formació prèvia o inicial dels estudiants universitaris a IA generative, els riscos ètics que l'ús de les eines d'IA comporta i les dificultats potencials per obtenir informació fiable. S’exploren també les potencialitats de redisseny de l’experiència dels estudiants en l’educació superior.
