Abstract—Nowadays, Artificial Intelligence (AI) tools have revolutionized scientists’ way of conducting research. Accordingly, the current study explores the role of OpenAI’s ChatGPT on PhD students’ achievement. For this purpose, a questionnaire was conducted among a sample of Moroccan PhD students in various scientific fields. The results achieved from structural equation modelling confirmed that perceived ease of use and perceived usefulness influence the degree of ChatGPT use and PhD students’ satisfaction, thereby enhancing individual net benefits. These findings offer a number of useful insights for academic leaders and doctoral supervisors regarding how they might take steps to update practices in using artificial intelligence tools.

Keywords—students, artificial intelligence, ChatGPT, satisfaction, net benefits
