Abstract This study investigates the levels of knowledge and attitudes among nursing students in Kerala regarding the integration of artificial intelligence in their education and future clinical practice. The global healthcare landscape is changing rapidly due to the rise of digital technologies, and the Indian Nursing Council has recently revised the B.Sc. Nursing curriculum to include informatics and artificial intelligence as core competencies. However, the readiness of students to embrace these changes remains unclear. A descriptive cross-sectional research design was used to collect data from 115 B.Sc. Nursing and GNM students across private, government, and mission colleges in Kerala. Data collection was performed using a structured knowledge questionnaire and an attitude scale. The results show that 96.52% of students have heard of artificial intelligence, but their actual knowledge remains at a moderate level with a mean score of 16.17 out of 25. The attitude scores were predominantly neutral, with 89.57% of students falling into the moderate category. Statistical analysis using the Chi-square test revealed no significant association between demographic variables and attitude scores. Furthermore, a very weak positive correlation was found between knowledge and attitude. The findings suggest that while students are aware of the existence of artificial intelligence, there is a significant gap in formal training and clinical understanding. It is recommended that nursing colleges prioritize structured workshops and hands-on simulation training to prepare students for an increasingly digital healthcare environment.
