THE ROLE OF ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE IN DEVELOPING ENGLISH LANGUAGE LEARNING SKILLS AMONG EFL STUDENTS

This paper examines how artificial intelligence is changing second language learning, focusing on its concrete effects on reading, writing, speaking and listening skills. By synthesizing a comprehensive array of contemporary studies sourced from academic journals, conference proceedings, and scholarly text, this review delivers a current perspective on the integration of AI tools in today’s language classrooms. The analysis focuses on the practical applications of tools such as speech recognition software and conversational language models, highlighting their potential to personalize learning, reduce speaking anxiety, and provide immediate feedback on linguistic errors. At the same time, the paper critically examines challenges associated with AI-assisted language learning, including learners’ potential overreliance on automated tools, biases embedded in language models, and concerns surrounding data privacy.
