The rapid advancement of Artificial Intelligence (AI) has revolutionized the field of education, particularly in the domain of language learning. The integration of AI tools such as intelligent tutoring systems, adaptive learning platforms, speech recognition, and chatbot-based interactions has transformed traditional pedagogical practices by offering personalized, flexible, and learner-centered experiences. These tools not only enhance vocabulary acquisition, pronunciation accuracy, and grammar proficiency but also promote autonomous learning and cross-cultural communication. However, the amalgamation of AI in language education also presents significant challenges, including issues of accessibility, data privacy, ethical concerns, over-reliance on technology, and the need for teacher adaptation and digital literacy. This paper explores the dual nature of AI-driven language learning by highlighting both its opportunities for innovation and its limitations that demand critical evaluation. By analyzing the pedagogical implications, technological possibilities, and practical barriers, the study aims to provide a comprehensive understanding of how AI can reshape the future of language education while ensuring balanced and ethical implementation.
