Abstract
The integration of Artificial Intelligence (AI) in foreign language education is transforming how languages are taught and learned. This study investigates the current trends, advantages, and challenges of AI applications in language acquisition. Employing a qualitative content analysis method, the research analyzes scholarly publications and practical innovations in AI-based tools, such as adaptive learning systems, intelligent chatbots, and automated writing feedback. The findings highlight AI's potential to enhance personalized instruction, boost learner engagement, and expand access to authentic language materials. Nonetheless, the study also reveals notable limitations, including concerns about data privacy, diminished human interaction, and ethical risks related to algorithmic bias. The paper concludes that AI can significantly enrich language learning when its use is guided by ethical principles and inclusive pedagogical strategies. These conclusions have practical implications for educators, curriculum planners, and developers aiming to design responsible and effective AI-supported language learning environments.
