INTRODUCTION
In the current era of globalization, the English language occupies a leading position in the fields of international communication, education, science, and technology. Therefore, learning it effectively has become an essential need for every young generation. In recent years, the rapid development of information technologies, particularly artificial intelligence (AI) systems, has brought about fundamental changes in the process of language learning. AI-based programs not only expand students’ opportunities for independent learning but also assist teachers in organizing interactive and learner-centered lessons.
The main advantage of AI technologies lies in their ability to allow learners to practice the language anytime and anywhere, automatically assess pronunciation, detect grammatical errors, and develop communication skills. At the same time, excessive reliance on artificial intelligence may reduce learners’ capacity for independent thinking, creativity, and real-life communication, which has become a subject of discussion among educators and researchers.
From this point of view, studying and analyzing this topic is extremely relevant today. Proper and purposeful use of AI technologies plays a crucial role in improving the quality of English language learning, advancing the digitalization of education, and enhancing modern teaching methods.
Moreover, this topic has attracted the attention of many foreign and local scholars. Among them are Enik Rukiati, Tek Mani Karki, Abdullah Alenezi, and Ali Hekmat, as well as Uzbek researchers such as R. Murodov, D. Saidkodirova, M. Baxtiyorova, and A. M. Kasimova, who have conducted significant studies and contributed valuable insights to this field.
Review of the Literature
In recent years, the role of artificial intelligence (AI) technologies in the process of learning English has grown remarkably. Numerous foreign and local studies have comprehensively examined the effectiveness of this field and its pedagogical implications. In their 2024 study, Nigora Khodjamqulova and Rano Murodova emphasized that modern technologies, including AI-based tools, have helped create an interactive learning environment for studying English in Uzbekistan. According to their findings, such tools not only increase students’ motivation and engagement but also broaden their opportunities for independent learning.
In 2023, Dilnoza Saidkodirova analyzed the influence of AI technologies on teachers’ professional activities, evaluating them not as a “threat,” but as an innovative means that enhances creativity. She concluded that AI reduces teachers’ workload and assists in selecting methods tailored to the individual needs of learners. Similar conclusions have been drawn in international research. In 2025, Tek Mani Karki and Bishal Karki explored the opportunities and challenges of integrating artificial intelligence into the English language teaching system. Their research suggested that while AI increases the efficiency of the learning process, it cannot completely replace human interaction.
Likewise, Abdullah Alenezi (2025) investigated teachers’ and students’ perceptions of AI technologies. His study revealed that these tools contribute to the personalization of lessons and support learners in identifying and correcting their mistakes. Overall, the reviewed sources demonstrate that artificial intelligence technologies are elevating English language education to a new level. However, many researchers emphasize the importance of using these tools wisely and in moderation. Overdependence on AI could potentially diminish students’ interpersonal communication, critical thinking, and creativity. Therefore, the gradual and balanced integration of artificial intelligence into English language education is considered the most effective approach.
Analysis and Results
During the research, a survey was conducted among 20 respondents aged between 17 and 37 to determine the impact of artificial intelligence on English language learning. The participants were individuals connected to the field of English studies, including students, teachers, and professors. The survey results indicated that artificial intelligence technologies have a significant influence on the educational process.
The first question asked was: “How has artificial intelligence affected your English learning?” According to the findings, 81% (13 respondents) stated that AI tools were useful and effective in improving their English learning experience. However, 19% (3 respondents) reported that they had not used such technologies during their studies. This suggests that some learners still rely on traditional teaching methods and have yet to integrate modern digital tools into their language-learning process.
The second question asked participants: “Which skill do you think can be improved with the help of AI?” According to the results, 62% (12 respondents) believed that artificial intelligence is more effective in developing writing skills, while 38% (6 respondents) considered it more beneficial for enhancing speaking abilities. These findings indicate that AI tools—such as ChatGPT and Grammarly—are more frequently used to refine writing performance, particularly in correcting grammar, style, and structure.
The third question was: “Do you think the disadvantages of artificial intelligence outweigh its advantages?” The responses showed that 6 participants answered “yes,” highlighting certain negative aspects of AI technologies. Another 6 participants responded “no,” emphasizing that the benefits prevail over the drawbacks. Meanwhile, 4 respondents expressed a neutral opinion, noting that the advantages and disadvantages of artificial intelligence are balanced.
Overall, these results suggest that while AI is viewed positively in language education, its use should remain purposeful and balanced to maximize benefits without diminishing human creativity and interaction. Overall, the results of the survey demonstrate that artificial intelligence has a positive impact on the process of learning English. However, for its effective use, it is essential for users to develop technological literacy, independent thinking, and critical reasoning skills. Based on statistical data, individuals who utilize AI technologies tend to master grammar more quickly, yet human interaction remains an important component in spoken communication.
According to the research, the most effective aspects of AI tools include:1. Creating exercises tailored to the learner’s proficiency level;2. Quickly analyzing mistakes and offering appropriate corrections;3. Simulating real communication environments artificially;4. Removing limitations of time and place in the learning process.
The findings confirm that artificial intelligence cannot completely replace the human factor in English language education but can serve as a highly effective support tool for teachers.
Conclusion
In conclusion, English remains one of the most recommended languages to learn for various reasons. The study revealed that artificial intelligence provides substantial support in mastering the language effectively. Nevertheless, if learners use AI without a clear purpose, structured plan, and discipline, it may lead to wasted time, distraction, and decreased productivity.
Therefore, it is advisable to approach AI tools and technologies with rationality, balance, and mindfulness. In general, integrating artificial intelligence technologies with well-designed educational strategies can significantly enhance the quality of English language learning and strengthen the overall effectiveness of modern education.
