调查显示学生对生成式AI既兴奋又担忧，暴露教育准备差距。

Generative Artificial Intelligence (GenAI) is revolutionizing education and workforce development, profoundly shaping how students learn, engage, and prepare for their future. Outpacing the development of uniform policies and structures, GenAI has heralded a unique era and given rise to the GenAI Generation. We define the GenAI Generation as a cohort of students whose education has been increasingly shaped by the opportunities and challenges GenAI presents during its widespread adoption within society. This study examines students' perceptions of GenAI through a concise survey with optional open-ended questions, focusing on their awareness, preparedness, and concerns. Notably, readiness appears increasingly tied to exposure to GenAI through one's coursework. Students with greater curricular exposure to GenAI tend to feel more prepared, while those without it more often express vulnerability and uncertainty, highlighting a new and growing divide in readiness that goes beyond traditional disciplinary boundaries. Evaluation of more than 250 responses, with over 40% providing detailed qualitative feedback, reveals a core dual sentiment: while most students express enthusiasm for GenAI, an even greater proportion voice a spectrum of concerns about ethics, job displacement, and the adequacy of educational structures given the highly transformative technology. These findings offer critical insights into how students view the potential and pitfalls of GenAI for future career impacts. The challenge ahead involves implementing associated recommendations for educational institutions, moving beyond the baseline of access toward more informed guidance on the use of these tools, while preserving critical thinking, ethical reasoning, and adaptive learning.
