Abstract
We examined college students’ willingness to use artificial intelligence (AI) for different functions in academic, professional, and personal contexts (N = 77, 63% female, Mage = 20). Results indicated students’ willingness to “generate” and “edit” with AI was significantly higher in the academic context than the professional and personal contexts.
