The article discusses the use of Artificial Intelligence (A.I.) tools, specifically chatbots, in second language acquisition. It highlights the potential benefits and concerns associated with the use of A.I. in language learning. The article calls for systematic research to explore the capabilities of A.I. language models, such as ChatGPT, and their impact on language learning. It suggests three strands of research: examining the language model itself, investigating learner interactions with the model, and exploring the effects of the model on learners. The article emphasizes the need to connect this research with existing studies in Instructed Second Language Acquisition (ISLA) to enhance our understanding of language learning conditions.
