| description | In recent decades, artificial intelligence has transformed multiple sectors, including education. This study examines the perceptions of engineering students from Argentina, Colombia, and Chile regarding the use of AI in their educational processes and its relevance in the labor market. Using a qualitative approach with a descriptive scope, a survey was developed and validated, enabling its application to a sample of 71 students. The analysis of the results indicates that, although there is a widespread recognition of the importance of AI, challenges persist in the training and effective application of these technologies among both faculty and students, along with a weak regulatory framework within institutions. Existing efforts are limited to initiatives that provide general guidelines and resources for universities. Additionally, both potential benefits and ethical and operational concerns related to the implementation of AI tools in educational contexts were identified. In response to the question regarding the synergy between AI, academic processes, and industrial processes, the study concludes that such synergy is indeed possible, provided that AI tools are properly integrated into the academic curriculum and collaboration between educational institutions and the productive sector is encouraged. Furthermore, AI can contribute significantly to the development of students’ digital quotient, equipping them with the technical, cognitive, and socio-emotional competencies required to face challenges and adapt to the demands of digital life. |
