    Perceived Impacts of Artificial Intelligence on Academic Integrity in Higher Education in Sri Lanka: Perceptions of Teachers and Learners
    (Faculty of Humanities and Sciences, SLIIT, 2025-05-25) Wijayasiri, K. D. S.N
    This study investigates perceived impacts of artificial intelligence (AI) on academic integrity in Sri Lankan higher education from the perspectives of both teachers and learners. Employing a mixedmethods explanatory sequential design, quantitative survey data from 350 participants across six universities were complemented by qualitative semi-structured interviews and focus group discussions. The study examined AI awareness, perceived usefulness, perceived risk, and academic integrity attitudes. Findings indicate that AI awareness and perceived risk positively predict academic integrity, while perceived usefulness exerts a negative influence when AI is viewed as a means to shortcut academic effort. Qualitative themes revealed concerns about plagiarism, originality, assessment credibility, and insufficient institutional support, alongside recognition of AI’s potential for enhancing learning efficiency and language support. The study calls for explicit institutional policies, ethical AI leadership, AI literacy integration, and assessment redesign in Sri Lankan higher education.

    Challenges and Frontiers in Intellectual Property Rights Amidst the Rise of Artificial Intelligence
    (Faculty of Humanities and Sciences, SLIIT, 2024-05-25) Mahingoda, C.D
    This article investigates the impact of artificial intelligence (AI) on intellectual property (IP) rights, addressing challenges in ownership and authorship of AI-generated creations while exploring legal and ethical dilemmas in traditional IP domains. It offers strategies for navigating these complexities, drawing on legal precedents, international agreements, and policy recommendations. The research emphasizes the urgent need for legislative updates to address these challenges effectively. Recommendations include the enactment of innovative constitutional provisions, updating IP legislation to encompass AI-related issues comprehensively, and advocating for effective judicial intervention. By implementing these strategies, Sri Lanka can foster a harmonious coexistence of AI and IP, ensuring the protection of intellectual property rights while stimulating innovation in the AI era.
