The Role of AI Technology Plays in Chinese Students’ Spoken English Learning

Abstract

With the popularization and development of the Internet, artificial intelligence as a common tool has been widely used in Chinese students’ spoken English learning. Language learning assisted by AI technology is developed from information technology-assisted language learning. Although it has many advantages, it has not been fully developed and applied, and there is a research gap in the field of technology and ethics. This paper is a systematic review that describes in detail how information technology-assisted language learning has developed step by step from computers to artificial intelligence Apps and even robots, and summarizes the advantages of AI technology in spoken language learning, such as vividness, accuracy, and convenience, as well as the limitations of difficult application, high cost, low error-tolerant rate and neglect of cultural differences. Through literature investigation and comparative analysis, this paper summarizes the relevant suggestions and improvement plans for AI technology-assisted spoken English learning.
