Abstract
The integration of artificial intelligence (AI) technologies into education has becoming a promising approach to enhancing teaching and learning processes. In the field of language education, AI offers significant opportunities to support more effective, personalized, and student-centered instruction. This study aims to analyze the role of AI in language teaching by reviewing current developments and emerging trends. The research is based on a qualitative analysis of recent studies and practical applications of AI tools in language learning. The findings demonstrate that AI can improve learners’ engagement, speaking skills, and overall communicative competence. However, the study also highlights certain limitations, including ethical concerns and overall-reliance on technology. Therefore, it is argued that AI should be used as a complementary tool alongside traditional teaching methods to ensure a balanced and effective learning experience.
