Abstract

This Community Service Program (PKM) aims to enhance students' understanding at SMA Kristen Mercusuar Kupang on the wise use of artificial intelligence (AI) under the theme "Smartly Use AI, Don't Let It Control You". Conducted via face-to-face socialization, the activity involved 44 students using descriptive quantitative methods, including pre-test and post-test. Wilcoxon Signed-Rank Test results indicate a significant difference (Z = -3.621, p = 0.000), with 25 students showing improved understanding, 3 declines, and 16 unchanged. Education covered AI concepts, benefits, risks such as dependency and plagiarism, and digital ethics, effectively fostering critical and independent attitudes. The study provides school policy recommendations for responsible AI utilization, contributing to digital literacy amid rapid technological advancements.
