| Abstract: | GenAI's advanced natural language processing capabilities will revolutionize numerous areas, ranging from a paradigm shift in education to the economy. Along with the positive aspects of GenAI, ethical and social risks are also one of the negative aspects that attract attention in the literature. The purpose of this study is to test the role of mindset and GenAI literacy in university students' awareness of ethical and social risk with structural equation modeling. According to the research results, the developed awareness of ethical and social risk of generative artificial intelligence (GenAI) and the adapted GenAI literacy scale are valid and reliable. GenAI literacy variable does not have a significant effect on ethical and social risk awareness towards GenAI. Mindset should be taken into account in activities for both variables. |
