From Intelligence to Awareness: Exploring AI’s Future in Language Education

This presentation explores the transformative impact of Artificial Intelligence (AI) in English language teaching of advanced AI tools like TARI AI tools, developed by HUFLIT University, which have revolutionized language learning through sophisticated language models and deep learning techniques. These tools offer personalized, interactive, and dynamic learning experiences, extending beyond basic grammar correction to intricate conversation simulations and sophisticated language understanding. The presentation also discusses how AI aids in breaking down traditional barriers, offering flexibility, accessibility, and a tailored learning approach. It also addresses the critical comparison between AI-assisted methods and traditional teaching, highlighting the benefits of AI in terms of engagement, motivation, efficiency, and continual learning while considering the ethical challenges and the need for a balanced technological integration. The feedback from students who have experienced Computational Linguistics training underscores the effectiveness and relevance of AI in language education. Looking forward, the author speculates on future AI developments and potential transformations in teaching methodologies. The presentation concludes by reflecting on AI's role in creating a more efficient, personalized, and innovative educational landscape, advocating for thoughtful navigation of its complexities to ensure ethical and effective use in enriching learning experiences.
