benefits (personalization, instant feedback, speaking practice, intelligent tutoring), discusses major tools and implementations, analyzes
empirical evidence of effectiveness, and outlines ethical/technical challenges. The paper concludes with recommendations for teachers and
institutions on integrating AI into language curricula.
