The development of Artificial Intelligence (AI) in education provides various conveniences for students in obtaining information and supporting the learning process, while also raising concerns about the potential for dependency and reduce student’s learning independence. This study aims to analyze the impact of using AI as a learning assistant on student’s learning independence. The study used a quantitative approach with an associative approach. The sample consisted of 60 active students who have used AI. The research instrument used a Likert-scale questionnaire that measured two aspects of Artificial Intelligence and five aspects of learning independence. The reliability test results showed a Cronbach's Alpha value of 0.907 for the AI variable and 0.892 for the learning independence variable, categorized as excellent and good. The data obtained indicated that the research instrument had good internal consistency. This study contributes to the understanding of the utilization of AI technology in higher education and its implications for developing student’s learning independence in the digital era.
