Résumé:
The advent of Chat Generative Pre-Trained Transformer (ChatGPT), an artificial intelligence
chatbot developed by OpenAI, has brought substantial changes to various domains, particularly
in education and research. This dissertation investigates the perceptions of Master One students
regarding the utilization of ChatGPT as a research assistance tool. The core hypothesis posits
that students exhibit a positive attitude towards the integration of ChatGPT in their research
processes. A descriptive quantitative methodology was employed, utilizing data gathered from
two comprehensive questionnaires distributed among Master One students and faculty
members at the Department of English, University of 8 Mai 1945 - Guelma. The analysis of the
collected data corroborates the hypothesis, revealing a predominantly favorable disposition
among students towards the adoption of ChatGPT for research assistance. These findings
underscore the potential of AI-driven tools to enhance academic research and highlight the
growing acceptance of technological advancements in educational settings.
