Abstract

The advancement of Artificial Intelligence (AI) technology has significantly impacted the educational landscape, particularly regarding students' academic activities. The ability to understand, use, evaluate, and apply AI ethically constitutes a crucial competency known as AI Literacy. This study aims to assess the AI ​​Literacy level of students in the Library and Information Science program at Universitas Negeri Padang, based on the framework proposed by Davy Tsz Kit Ng, which encompasses four dimensions: AI Understanding, AI Use, AI Evaluation, and AI Ethics. A descriptive quantitative approach was employed, with a sample of 79 students from the Class of 2021 selected using the Slovin formula. Data were collected via a Likert-scale questionnaire and analyzed descriptively. The results indicate that the students' AI Literacy level falls into the "good" category, with an average score of 3.23. Specifically, the scores for the indicators were 3.20 for AI Understanding, 3.20 for AI Use, 3.28 for AI Evaluation, and 3.27 for AI Ethics. These findings demonstrate that the students possess a solid ability to grasp fundamental AI concepts, utilize AI for academic tasks, critically evaluate AI outputs, and understand the ethical aspects of its use. Nevertheless, further enhancement of AI Literacy competencies is still required, particularly in strengthening critical thinking skills, information verification, and the understanding of AI ethics within the academic environment.
