Abstract

AI is becoming increasingly common in many industries, including education, as technology advances. AI is used in education to provide learning content that suits the needs of students. One of them is Gemini. Gemini is an AI tool that can answer questions in an informative way, even when the questions are open-ended, challenging, or strange. The purpose of this research is to see students' perceptions of the use Gemini as an auxiliary tool in the English Writing process. This research was qualitative in nature in which Semi-structured interview was utilized to collect the data. The interview consisted of main questions and follow-up questions, where the follow-up questions were based on the answers to the main questions given at the beginning. This study involved 9 selected EFL students out of 30. Most students already had their own AI technology applications, so they were reluctant to adapt to AI technology applications like Gemini. But on the other hand, the students’ perceived that Gemini had many features that were very helpful in the writing process. students preferred AI technology applications that they had used before compared to Gemini for this time being, but when viewed from the perceptions given by students, researchers believe Gemini would be used as a writing tool in the future. This research can provide another option for students to facilitate the writing process so that they do not depend on the AI technology applications they have used before.
