Research on the Influence of Online Public Opinion on College Students' Values in the Context of Artificial Intelligence

Abstract

The advent of generative artificial intelligence, exemplified by ChatGPT, has infused new vitality into the ideological and political education of college students through its formidable generative capabilities. However, it has also imparted impacts on their values across multiple dimensions. In the backdrop of the widespread adoption of generative AI, college students, being digital natives, have emerged as key players and disseminators in online public opinion. Characterized by their active minds and susceptibility to diverse ideological trends, they may face disruptions in their value cognition or, in extreme cases, deviations in their behavioral norms when confronted with sudden public events that evolve amidst shifting online public opinion. Hence, amidst the relentless advancement of AI, it is crucial to assist college students in mitigating the adverse effects of online public opinion stemming from such events on their values.
