Multiple outlets report that college students increasingly use artificial intelligence for academic work, even as some graduation ceremonies feature booing or criticism of AI. Times of India cites a recent survey indicating that more than four-fifths of students use AI for study-related purposes. The report also says business students show a notable increase in frequent AI use for tasks such as assignments. The New York Post similarly highlights that reliance on AI among college students has grown, noting a surge in its routine use in recent years, including among business school students.
Beyond usage rates, Times of India adds that employers are increasingly asking about AI skills during job interviews, suggesting growing expectations that graduates understand or can work with AI tools. Students also express concerns, particularly about AI’s potential impact on independent thinking and academic integrity. Taken together, the sources describe rising adoption across student groups, alongside ongoing debate about academic fairness and the implications for future employment.
