N2 - This research aimed to determine the teachers’ perception of the artificial intelligence (AI) application ChatGPT regarding the academic uses that higher education students can make of it within a framework of digital interconnection. The study is based on an inductive method, basic typology, exploratory scope, non-experimental design, using the positivist paradigm and quantitative approach, and relied on a survey and a 25-question online questionnaire covering five dimensions: uses and knowledge, advantages, disadvantages, challenges, and needs. A convenience sample was used: 177 research professors from 19 universities in Ecuador and Peru. It is concluded that teachers recognize that they know little and use ChatGPT less. Still, they see both opportunities and warning signs in a panorama of challenges and requirements to be covered to respond, with optimism and caution, to what has already opened a new stage in information and communication technologies in the educational field.
