Abstract
This experimental study investigates the impact of integrating Chat GPT (Generative Pre-trained Transformer) on student learning outcomes in technology education at Universitas Muhammadiyah Muara Bungo. The research involves an experimental group using Chat GPT and a control group with conventional methods. Data from 31 participants in each group were collected, assessing learning outcomes through final test scores. Analyzing the results with a t-test, the experimental group displayed significantly higher achievements than the control group, highlighting the positive effect of incorporating GPT Chat into educational technology. The study illuminates the potential of AI-powered chatbots like Chat GPT to enhance student learning outcomes. Further exploration is required to gauge its adaptability across diverse educational contexts for more enhanced learning results. T-test results, conducted at a 95% confidence level with α 0.05, and degrees of freedom dk = n1 + n2 - 2 = 60, showed tcount of 5.424 against ttable of 2.000, firmly establishing tcount > ttable (5.424 > 2.000). Consequently, the null hypothesis (H0) proposing no significant impact of Chat GPT utilization is refuted. Conversely, the alternative hypothesis (H1), signifying a significant influence from Chat GPT usage, is upheld, affirming its substantial role in students' technological education.
