Summary/Abstract: The paper presents a mixed-methods, intercultural analysis of how Romanian and French veterinary medicine students use artificial intelligence (AI) in their academic, linguistic and professional training. Based on a questionnaire administered to 334 participants at the University of Agricultural Sciences and Veterinary Medicine in Cluj-Napoca, the study identifies three adoption patterns — instrumental-creative, efficient-cautious and minimal-reactive — shaped by cultural values, digital self-efficacy and access to institutional resources. Results show higher usage frequency and tool diversity in the Romanian line, while French students emphasize ethical concerns and data reliability. The article discusses ethical, curricular and sustainability implications and proposes a culturally responsive model for critical AI literacy in veterinary education.
