Artificial Intelligence (AI) in language education.an interesting futuristic influence changing the pedagogical approaches and the engagement of learners. From chatbots to Natural Language Processing (NLP) technologies, everything is just possible. This paper will therefore review literature to confirm the impact of AI in language learning, focusing on applications such as ChatGPT for interactive and personalised learning experiences. On the other hand, AI-powered chatbots that closely mimic real conversations—like ChatGPT—provide very flexible and reachable tools for language practice. However, their potential is overshadowed by the looming issues such as the very appropriate use, accuracy, and cultural biases in the application of AI. These call for educators and learners to enhance their digital competences with regard to effective and ethical utilisation of the AI technologies. It points out the critical role of AI in revolutionising language education with an eye on current trends and future directions.
