Abstract
The integration of artificial intelligence (AI) into foreign language education has
fundamentally transformed both pedagogical approaches and learning experiences. By
enabling adaptive learning, real-time feedback, and personalized instruction, AI
platforms offer new opportunities for enhancing linguistic competence. However,
despite these advantages, concerns remain regarding the reduction of human
interaction, overdependence on technology, and ethical implications. This paper
critically examines the role of AI within the framework of digital pedagogy, arguing
that its effectiveness depends on a balanced integration with traditional teaching
practices. Ultimately, AI should be viewed not as a replacement for educators, but as a
complementary tool that supports more dynamic and learner-centered environments.
