THE ROLE OF AI IN LEARNING A FOREIGN LANGUAGE
Abstract
The research investigates the influence that Artificial Intelligence (AI) has on foreign language education. Empirical research together with systematic reviews and peer-reviewed articles support evidence-based analysis of how AI tools promote language acquisition through customized learning experiences and interactive student engagement and prompt feedback methods. The study exposes essential ethical problems that include data privacy issues besides cultural sensitivity problems and dependency concerns on technological dependency. The research findings establish that artificial intelligence brings powerful benefits to language education but standard teaching practices need equal weight for complete AI exploitation.
