companies are developing technologies in the field of AI. Yandex has already been using them in
its search engine for several years. The IT company has been researching neural networks since
2016.
The latter are changing the way search engines work. In particular, neural networks compare
the search query entered by the user with a specific vector number that best reflects the meaning
of the task. In other words, the search is not done by words, but by the essence of the information
the person is looking for. in 2016, Yandex introduced the Zen service, which analyses users'
preferences. Abbyy recently introduced the Compreno system. With its help, it is possible to
understand written text in natural language. Other systems based on artificial intelligence
technologies have also only recently appeared on the market:
1.
Findo. The system is able to recognise human language and search for information in various
documents and files using complex queries.
2.
Gamalon. This company has introduced a system with the ability to self-learn.
3.
Watson. An IBM computer that uses a large number of algorithms to search for information.
4.
ViaVoice. A system for recognising human speech.
Large commercial companies are not shying away from advances in artificial intelligence.
Banks are actively introducing such technologies into their activities. With the help of AI-based
systems, they settle stock exchange transactions, manage real estate and carry out other operations.
Object recognition technologies are being introduced in the defence industry, medicine and other
sectors. And companies that develop computer games are using AI to develop their next product.
The ability to interact with AI and use it for the purposes of foreign language teaching is a
component of a foreign language teacher's digital competence, which is understood as the level of
mastery of digital competences (knowledge, skills, abilities, readiness to conduct the educational
process in a digital environment) [3]. A foreign language teacher must be able to use digital tools,
programmes and online resources for foreign language teaching, create their own digital learning
materials and digital environments, organise and manage the learning process in a digital
environment. A teacher who does not have a high level of digital literacy will not be able to fully
utilise AI technologies in the teaching process. So what role can AI play in the work of a foreign
language teacher? The authors of the book “Artificial Intelligence in Education” claim that by
2030, AI will learn to help teachers, collaborate with them and act as an intermediary between
them and the students [4, p. 14]. Already now, many platforms (Edvibe, Miro, Notion, Trello,
Canva, etc.) used by foreign language teachers in the teaching process have AI assistants installed
that can create the texts and tasks, images, diagrams, maps and other teaching materials needed by
teachers with one click.In foreign language courses, chatbots are used to answer questions from
students, reducing the amount of time teachers spend on routine tasks. The GPT chat can check
written work, point out errors and demonstrate how to correct them. This gives teachers the
opportunity to tap into the algorithms that drive AI and make their work even better. In this context,
the literature refers to the concept of “augmented intelligence” or the “human-computer tandem",”
which makes it possible to compensate for each other's mistakes and increase the efficiency of the
educational process [4, p. 32].So, from all of the above, we can conclude that by skilfully using
AI, a teacher can make the educational process more effective and transfer some of their tasks to
the computer, freeing up their time for more intellectual and creative tasks.The educational
platform Duolingo offers courses in more than 30 languages. Duolingo's AI tool BirdBrain learns
each user's profile and makes predictions about their learning progress, creating a personalised
learning experience. The system keeps track of tasks that cause the student difficulties and also
remembers mistakes made in these tasks, whereupon it creates a further training plan.The
platform's Explain My Answer feature allows language learners to chat with the Duo bot. The bot
can rate and comment on the answer and offer additional examples to help the learner better
understand and master the material. Thank you to the role play function, you can collect points for
