| This paper investigates the influence of AI tools on academic writing within the English as a Medium of Instruction (EMI) framework, focusing on two cohorts in an Information Ethics course. Through an exploratory study, the research scrutinises the incorporation of AI tools at different stages of the academic text production process. The data analysis shows the widespread use of AI tools throughout all phases of academic writing and reveals a departure from the conventional sequence of writing stages. Furthermore, the research sheds light on the substantial impact of tool selection on the intricacies of the writing process. The findings underscore the necessity of bridging the gap between theoretical awareness and the practical application of AI in academic writing, particularly addressing the observed cognitive overextension related to generative AI. Finally, this study advocates for the recognition and development of academic AI competence, acknowledging the influence of AI on scholarly communication |
