Abstract

This study examines the role of Artificial Intelligence (AI) in language learning in the Education 5.0 era. The background highlights the importance of integrating intelligent technologies to create more flexible, personalized, and effective learning experiences. The study aims to analyze the opportunities and challenges of using AI to improve learners’ language skills. A qualitative literature review method was employed by analyzing relevant studies published between 2020 and 2025. The findings indicate that AI enhances language skills, including listening, speaking, reading, and writing, through adaptive learning, immediate feedback, and access to authentic and diverse learning resources. In addition, the use of AI increases learners’ motivation and engagement in the learning process. However, several challenges remain, such as limited digital literacy, teacher readiness in integrating technology, over-reliance on technology, and data privacy concerns. In conclusion, AI is an effective and innovative tool to support language learning, but it requires proper implementation to maximize its benefits.
