This was accomplished by addressing three study objectives and testing three related hypotheses at a significant level of 0.05. The target population consisted of 73 business education students from five chosen universities in the South-South geopolitical zone, and a descriptive survey research design was employed. Due to their usage of AI-driven techniques, all 73 Students purposefully constituted the sample size. A business education professional validated the instrument, called the \u201cAssessing the Impact of AI-Driven Tools on Fostering an Entrepreneurial Mindset among Business Education Students Questionnaire\u201d (AIAIDTMEBESQ), which was used to collect data. A reliability coefficient value of 0.762 was obtained for the instrument. Results showed that AI-driven tools influence opportunity recognition skills among business education students in South-South Nigeria, revealing a positive relationship between using AI-driven tools and the development of risk-taking behaviours; however, this relationship was statistically insignificant and weak. Furthermore, while AI-driven tools were found to influence problem-solving abilities, this influence was also statistically insignificant. The study concludes that although AI-driven tools hold promises for fostering elements of an entrepreneurial mindset, their effect on risk-taking behavio<\/em><em><ins>u<\/ins><\/em><em>r and problem-solving abilities among business education students is limited. The study recommends that universities integrate AI-driven tools more effectively into the business education curriculum, emphasizing practical applications that enhance critical thinking, opportunity recognition, and entrepreneurial problem-solving skills.<\/em><em><\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Keywords:<\/strong>\u00a0AI-Driven Tools, Artificial Intelligence, Business Education Students, Entrepreneurial Mindset<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-buttons is-layout-flex wp-block-buttons-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-button\"><a class=\"wp-block-button__link wp-element-button\" href=\"https:\/\/ijeti.uniben.edu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/ijeti-vol2-issue1-Article-14.pdf\">Click to Download Article<\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>LIADI, Hakeem Olaniyi &nbsp;&nbsp; Faculty of Education, National Open University of Nigeria, 91 Cadastral Zones, Nnamdi Azikiwe Expressway, Jabi Abuja.
