Abstract

The application of Artificial Intelligence (AI) in education has raised arguments about its impact on creativity, particularly in foreign language teaching. While some view AI as disrupting traditional teaching methods by reducing teachers' creative abilities, others see it as a powerful tool that aids language learning. This paper addresses the dual role of AI in foreign language teaching, explaining how it can limit or expand teachers' creativity. The study considers AI-facilitated tools, their effect on lesson design, learning customization, and students' motivation. While AI can't replace human creativity, it has the potential to serve as an imagination assistant that aids teachers rather than disempowers them. The study suggests that AI, when used effectively, is capable of reinforcing instruction and crafting a more interactive and dynamic language-learning environment.
