The article is devoted to the exploration of the relevance of Artificial Intelligence (AI) in education. Specifically, it touches upon the use of AI-based tools in the development of academic writing skills. The integration of technology into English lessons has been widely recognized as a means of overcoming certain barriers in language learning processes, especially in writing tasks, where time constraints often arise. Given the ubiquitous availability of technology and online platforms, it is now convenient for students to master language skills, in particular academic writing, anytime and from anywhere. This includes the use of advanced computer and mobile programs based on artificial intelligence, which offer interactive and personalized tools to develop writing skills as well as increase motivation.
The results of the study show that teachers and students have a positive attitude towards AI, given its considerable drawbacks. The use of writing tools based on AI makes a significant contribution to student learning in terms of organization and consistency, lexical resources, grammatical range and accuracy. The article can be considered as a reference source of information for teachers and students who teach and study academic writing, and especially for candidates for standardized English language tests.
