The article presents the results of scientific research on a comprehensive analysis of the problem of compliance with the principles of academic integrity in the context of active use of artificial intelligence tools in the educational and scientific activities of Ukraine and foreign countries. The author emphasizes that the modern vector of education declares the concept of academic integrity as a prerequisite for the formation of an effective system of education and science free from academic fraud and other types of related violations. It is established that the extremely rapid development of artificial intelligence technologies significantly affects all spheres of human activity, creating unique opportunities for learning and research, but at the same time giving rise to new ethical dilemmas. An analysis of the literature on this topic shows that global issues of using artificial intelligence in education and science are the subject of study and active discussion by many domestic and foreign scholars. At the same time, the peculiarities of observing and ensuring academic integrity by students, teachers and researchers in the context of preventing violations related to the misuse of artificial intelligence technologies remain insufficiently studied. The article analyzes the process of implementation of the provisions of international acts, in particular, the Magna Carta of Universities (1988) and the Bucharest Declaration of Ethical Values and Principles of European Higher Education (2004) into the national legislation of Ukraine, as well as the impact of the Bologna Process on the reform of the educational and scientific environment of our country. It is established that Ukraine’s desire to comply with the generally recognized European principles of development of the education and science system places increased demands on the implementation of the concept of academic integrity in order to reduce the risks of violations in this area. The author emphasizes the need to adopt special legislation on academic integrity as soon as possible, given the relevance and importance of the issue under study.
