Peningkatan integrasi kecerdasan buatan dalam dunia akademik menimbulkan kekhawatiran etis, khususnya di kalangan mahasiswa bisnis dan akuntansi yang diharapkan menjunjung tinggi integritas profesional. Penelitian ini mengkaji faktor-faktor yang memengaruhi penggunaan AI untuk melakukan kecurangan akademik di kalangan mahasiswa bisnis di Indonesia, dengan menggunakan Fraud Diamond Theory sebagai kerangka konseptual. Survei daring yang dilakukan sejak Agustus 2024 hingga Januari 2025 menghasilkan 424 tanggapan valid yang dianalisis menggunakan SmartPLS versi 4.1.0.9. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa mahasiswa tidak memandang faktor peluang sebagai penentu dalam melakukan kecurangan akademik berbantuan AI. Sebaliknya, faktor kapabilitas, rasionalisasi, dan motivasi berpengaruh signifikan terhadap niat mahasiswa untuk melakukan tindakan tersebut. Penelitian ini memberikan kontribusi bagi literatur dan praktik dengan menyoroti tantangan etika dalam adopsi AI di lingkungan pendidikan di Indonesia. Studi ini menekankan pentingnya pelatihan etika dalam penggunaan AI, peningkatan literasi digital, serta penerapan protokol institusional yang jelas dalam menghadapi dilema etis. Pemahaman terhadap faktor-faktor utama kecurangan akademik berbantuan AI mendukung pengembangan strategi pencegahan dan deteksi yang efektif. Mengingat fokus penelitian pada mahasiswa bisnis dan akuntansi di Indonesia, diperlukan validasi lebih luas dengan sampel beragam dan pengukuran yang lebih objektif. Penelitian selanjutnya diharapkan dapat mengeksplorasi dampak jangka panjang penggunaan AI terhadap etika profesional, integritas akademik, dan efektivitas intervensi.
