Artificial Intelligence (AI) software has enormous potential to remain a versatile teaching tool that is of great interest to academicians and educators. This qualitative case study was intending to apply AI in foreign language teaching. It bridged a research gap by examining the potential applications, benefits and drawbacks of this novel method. This study selected it due to its possible ability to offer a detailed analysis of minute effects of AI on the process of learning the English as a Foreign Language (EFL) in an educational context. In the research, thirteen students who had attended preparatory courses longer than four weeks were considered; a researcher and a language instructor presented AI to the students through instruction exercises. The qualitative data is explored with the use of theme analysis, which is obtained within the process of interview. The research states that AI undoubtedly upsets the learning habits of the students particularly in writing, grammar and vocabulary development. It also enhances motivation and engagement because it is easy to incorporate it in a broad spectrum of learning activities. The findings will help to take into account the benefits and shortcomings of AI in education, and they can support both researchers and educators in developing more effective lesson plans and curricula. The given article concentrates on the effects of AI in EFL, and its discussion is presented in a way that presents the result.
