The purpose of this study is to identify possible legal means of ensuring academic integrity in the context of the proliferation of AI in Ukraine and the rest of the world. The research methods include analysis and synthesis, comparative and predictive methods. It has been established that the evolution of artificial intelligence can have both positive and negative effects on academic integrity in the fields of education and scientific research. Therefore, it is necessary to make full use of the potential of artificial intelligence while taking measures to deal with various violations of academic integrity. Such measures should address the organization of the teaching and learning process as well as the assessment of knowledge based on creativity and critical thinking. Given the proliferation of artificial intelligence ensuring academic integrity at the legal level has to include the development by higher education institutions of guidelines (recommendations) as soft law instruments, the adoption of appropriate national legislation on academic integrity as well as relevant international legal regulation. In the current conditions of digitization, the national legislation on academic integrity has to take into account modern technological trends, in particular, the issues of ensuring academic integrity caused by artificial intelligence.
