Usability of Chatgpt in Human-Computer Interaction and Its Relationship With Artificial Intelligence Attitude

Öz

This study examined the usability of ChatGPT, an AI-powered chatbot, and university students’ perceptions of its usability. It also investigated the relationship between participants’ views on ChatGPT’s usability and their general attitudes toward it. Scenario-based tasks were assigned to participants, and the data were analyzed using task analysis, user analysis, descriptive statistics, and correlation analysis. The findings revealed that ChatGPT performs well in areas such as information access, language translation, and academic content generation; however, its success rates decrease in more complex tasks such as system settings, data management, and sharing. Descriptive analyses indicated that participants generally perceived the system’s accessibility positively. Correlation analyses showed a strong and significant relationship between the system’s usability and positive attitudes toward artificial intelligence. Overall, the findings suggest that ChatGPT is functional for users; however, improvements are needed, particularly in contextual tracking and personalization.

İnsan-Bilgisayar Etkileşiminde Chatgpt'nin Kullanılabilirliği ve Yapay Zeka Tutumu ile İlişkisi

Öz

Bu çalışma, yapay zekâ destekli bir sohbet robotu olan ChatGPT’nin kullanılabilirliğini ve üniversite öğrencilerinin bu kullanılabilirliğe ilişkin algılarını incelemiştir. Ayrıca, katılımcıların ChatGPT’nin kullanılabilirliğine yönelik görüşleri ile genel tutumları arasındaki ilişki ele alınmıştır. Katılımcılara senaryo temelli görevler verilmiş ve veriler; görev analizi, kullanıcı analizi, betimleyici istatistikler ve korelasyon analizi kullanılarak incelenmiştir. Bulgular, ChatGPT’nin bilgiye erişim, dil çevirisi ve akademik içerik üretimi gibi alanlarda iyi performans gösterdiğini; ancak sistem ayarları, veri yönetimi ve paylaşım gibi daha karmaşık görevlerde başarı oranlarının düştüğünü ortaya koymuştur. Betimleyici analizler, katılımcıların sistemin erişilebilirliğini genel olarak olumlu algıladığını göstermiştir. Korelasyon analizleri, sistemin kullanılabilirliği ile yapay zekâya yönelik olumlu tutumlar arasında güçlü ve anlamlı bir ilişki olduğunu göstermiştir. Bulgular, ChatGPT’nin kullanıcılar için işlevsel olduğunu; ancak özellikle bağlamsal izleme ve kişiselleştirme açısından geliştirmelere ihtiyaç duyulduğunu ortaya koymaktadır.
