Abstract(s)
O presente artigo tem por objetivo explorar o uso de ferramentas de Inteligência Artificial (IA) por estudantes do doutoramento, focando em como estas ferramentas são usadas, os seus benefícios e desafios. A investigação, de natureza qualitativa, adotou uma abordagem de estudo de caso, utilizando o grupo focal para a recolha de dados. Inicialmente, apresenta-se o enquadramento teórico que sustenta as questões de investigação: de que modo é que os estudantes do Ensino Superior utilizam as ferramentas de Inteligência Artificial generativa? E quais são as suas percepções acerca da sua utilização em contexto académico? Em seguida a metodologia, onde são apresentadas e justificadas as estratégias e técnicas selecionadas para investigar o problema, descrevendo a sua aplicação. Posteriormente, os resultados da aplicação das técnicas de recolha de dados são apresentados. Por fim, surgem as conclusões, que sistematizam as descobertas realizadas e apontam as limitações do estudo, destacando possíveis futuras investigações de interesse resultantes de lacunas existentes e detetadas. Os estudantes reconhecem que as ferramentas de IA aumentam a produtividade e otimizam o tempo de estudo, mas expressam preocupações éticas, como o plágio e a dependência. Há uma perceção generalizada da necessidade de maior regulamentação e literacia em IA, para garantir o uso ético e eficaz destas tecnologias no contexto académico. A formação em IA é vista como fundamental para maximizar os benefícios e mitigar os riscos associados ao uso destas ferramentas.

The qualitative research adopted a case study approach, using a focus group for data collection. Initially, the theoretical framework supporting the research questions is presented: how do higher education students use generative Artificial Intelligence tools? And what are their perceptions of their use in an academic context? Then the methodology, where the strategies and techniques selected to investigate the problem are presented and justified, describing their application. Subsequently, the results of the application of data collection techniques are presented. Finally, the conclusions emerge, which systematize the discoveries made and point out the limitations of the study, highlighting possible future investigations of interest resulting from existing and detected gaps. Students recognize that AI tools increase productivity and optimize study time, but express ethical concerns such as plagiarism and addiction. There is a widespread perception of the need for greater regulation and literacy in AI, to ensure the ethical and effective use of these technologies in the academic context. Training in AI is seen as fundamental to maximizing the benefits and mitigating the risks associated with the use of these tools.
