,


Introduction
English has become vital for international communication and business in today's globalized world.English proficiency is an academic necessity for Thai students and a crucial ability that can open the door to countless future chances.However, traditional techniques of language training, which frequently rely on memorization by rote and repetitive exercises, are less efficient at engaging pupils and offering a tailored learning experience.Artificial Intelligence (AI) has emerged as a potent tool in various industries, altering how jobs are accomplished and issues are solved.Recently, there has been a growing interest in utilizing AI technologies for educational applications, specifically language learning.This study investigates the potential for AI to boost Thai students' English language learning.Using AI-based platforms and applications tailored to their requirements and interests, students can engage in personalized and interactive learning.This study examines the benefits of artificial intelligence in English language learning, discusses the problems that need to be solved, and recommends appropriately incorporating AI into the Thai education system.
The capacity to create tailored learning experiences is one of the most significant benefits of using AI in English language learning.Individual student strengths, limitations, and learning styles can be analyzed using AI-powered platforms, allowing customized content and exercises.According to a study by Wang and Chen (2018), AI algorithms may adjust the level of difficulty of exercises based on a student's performance, ensuring that they are appropriately pushed without being overwhelmed.By focusing on specific growth areas and delivering tailored feedback, this individualized method can dramatically increase language learning efficiency.
In addition to personalization, the dynamic and engaging character of AI facilitates English language learning.Traditional language acquisition methods rely on textbooks and lectures, which may only partially engage and fascinate students.However, AI-based systems can incorporate gamification elements such as quizzes, interactive exercises, and virtual chats to make learning more engaging and motivating.According to a study by Suleman et al. (2019), students who used AI-based language learning platforms reported higher levels of engagement and motivation than those who used conventional methods.
When integrating AI into English language education in Thailand, various obstacles must be overcome despite the potential benefits.One of the most significant problems is ensuring that all students, regardless of socioeconomic status, have equitable access to AI technologies.AI platforms frequently necessitate internet connectivity and gadgets, which some students, especially those from underprivileged regions, may need easier access.According to Rovai et al. (2020), policymakers and educational institutions must invest in infrastructure and resources to overcome the digital divide and offer fair access to AI-based language learning tools.Artificial Intelligence (AI) in the classroom offers many advantages, including customized learning experiences for each student.Using AI algorithms, intelligent tutoring systems can adjust and meet each learner's specific demands, improving comprehension and memory retention.AI is used in adaptive assessments to evaluate students' performance, giving them immediate feedback and pinpointing areas for development.
Several recommendations can be proposed to leverage AI for English language learning in Thailand effectively.First, teacher training programs should be developed to equip educators with the necessary skills and knowledge to integrate AI into their teaching practices effectively.This will ensure teachers can guide and support students utilizing AI tools to maximize their learning outcomes.Additionally, a collaboration between educational institutions, AI developers, and language experts is crucial in designing and developing AI platforms that are culturally sensitive and aligned with the Thai curriculum.By working together, universities can create AI-based solutions that cater to Thai students' specific needs and context, enhancing their English language learning experience.However, before exploring the possible advantages of AI in English language learning, it is crucial to undertake a gap analysis to pinpoint the current flaws in the language learning methodologies in Thailand.Thai students frequently require assistance in understanding the language despite efforts to increase their English language ability.Traditional approaches like lectures and textbooks must be upgraded to provide individualized and exciting learning experiences.These methods may need to be revised to effectively address each student's unique learning needs and preferences, which could lead to less-than-ideal learning outcomes.
Additionally, a lack of interactive and exciting language learning activities might hinder students' motivation and interest.The gap in the existing language learning strategies emphasizes the demand for novel techniques to overcome these constraints and offer Thai students a more effective and exciting learning environment.
This study seeks to close the gaps in Thailand's language-learning strategies by completing a gap analysis.AI technology can close these gaps by providing interactive learning experiences tailored to each student's requirements and interests.By including AI-based platforms and applications, learning activities, gamification features, and virtual discussions can be provided to motivate and enliven students' learning.Artificial Intelligence (AI) in the classroom offers many advantages, including customized learning experiences for each student.Using AI algorithms, intelligent tutoring systems can adjust and meet each learner's specific demands, improving comprehension and memory retention.AI is used in adaptive assessments to evaluate students' performance, giving them immediate feedback and pinpointing areas for development (Ideal Asarsh, 2023).
This study aims to fill the holes in Thailand's language-learning methodologies by performing a gap analysis.AI technology can close these gaps by offering interactive learning opportunities customized to each student's needs and interests.Learning activities, gamification elements, and virtual dialogues can be offered to stimulate and animate students' learning by incorporating AI-based platforms and applications.
The gap analysis highlights the shortcomings of conventional language learning methods in Thailand and the demand for creative solutions (Balaji & Chakravarthy, 2019).LinkedIn (2023) claimed the technological sector has advanced significantly in recent years, and education is one area where this is most noticeable.Students now have more excellent options than ever to customize their learning experiences to meet their unique needs, thanks to the development of artificial intelligence (AI) and personalized learning.
The way students study is being revolutionized by AI-driven individualized learning.Personalized learning can produce more tailored learning routes for students by utilizing AI technology, leading to more effective and efficient learning.By assessing each student's unique needs and customizing the materials and activities to suit their interests, artificial intelligence (AI), technology can assist in making learning more personalized.Students may receive individualized content based on their skills, interests, and learning preferences, for instance, through AI-driven personalized learning.
Moreover, compared to conventional approaches, AI-driven individualized learning can offer pupils more feedback and direction.AI can identify the areas in which pupils are having difficulty and offer focused comments to help them improve.AI is also capable of making activity and resource recommendations that are specific to each student's needs.As they continue learning, this keeps pupils interested and involved.
AI technologies can close these gaps and improve Thai students' English language acquisition.The remainder of this essay will expand on the advantages of AI in language acquisition, go over the issues that must be resolved, and offer suggestions for successfully incorporating AI into the Thai educational system.Therefore, the researcher wishes to consider the gap analysis to explore the potential of artificial intelligence (AI) in English language learning.

Research Objectives
(1) To investigate the potential of artificial intelligence (AI) like Chat GPT to facilitate English language learning among Thai students.
(2) To compare the effectiveness of English Language Learning among Thai Students after implementing artificial intelligence (AI): Chat GPT to facilitate English language learning.

Traditional Methods of Language Learning
Traditional language learning methods in Thailand often rely on rote memorization and repetitive exercises.These methods, while straightforward, may not cater to individual learning styles or provide opportunities for real-world language application.The lack of personalization and interactive engagement can result in reduced motivation and less effective learning outcomes.Traditional language learning methods have long been foundational to acquiring proficiency in a new language.These methods have evolved, formed the basis of language education, and been widely used in various educational settings.Here is an explanation of each method : (1) Grammar-Translation Method The grammar-translation method emphasizes the study of grammatical rules and translating texts between the target language and the native language.It focuses on understanding the structure and rules of the language through reading and writing (Richards & Rodgers, 2014). (

2) Direct Method
The Direct Method stresses the direct interaction with the target language without using the native language.It focuses on oral communication, emphasizing conversation and practical language use (Berlitz & Haupth, 1946).
(3) Audio-Lingual Method The Audio-Lingual Method centers on habit formation and repetition, often involving intense drilling of language patterns.It heavily relies on oral and aural skills and minimizes the use of the written form (Lado, 1964).

(4) Communicative Language Teaching (CLT)
Communicative Language Teaching prioritizes honest communication and interaction.It encourages students to engage in meaningful conversations, problem-solving, and context-based language use (Littlewood, (2014). (

5) Total Physical Response (TPR)
Total Physical Response is based on the idea that language learning is facilitated by involving physical actions and responses.Students respond to commands in the target language to understand and internalize language patterns (Asher, 1969).These traditional language learning methods have contributed to the rich language education landscape and continue to influence language teaching practices worldwide.You can explore these methods further through the provided references and citations.

AI in Education
In education, this technology will influence how students learn, teachers work, and ultimately, how people structure the education system.Some educators and leaders look forward to these changes with great enthusiasm.Sal Kahn, founder of Khan Academy, went so far as to say in a TED talk that AI has the potential to effect "probably the biggest positive transformation that education has ever seen."However, others warn that AI will spread misinformation, facilitate cheating in school and college, kill whatever vestiges of individual privacy remain, and cause massive job loss.The challenge is to harness the positive potential while avoiding or mitigating the harm.In May 2023, the U.S. Department of Education released a report titled Artificial Intelligence and the Future of Teaching and Learning: Insights and Recommendations.The department conducted listening sessions 2022 with more than 700 people, including educators and parents, to gauge their views on AI.The report noted, "Constituents believe that action is required now to get ahead of the expected increase of AI in education technology-and they want to roll up their sleeves and start working together."People expressed anxiety about "future potential risks" with AI but felt that "AI may enable achieving educational priorities in better ways, at scale, and with lower costs" (Education Next, 2023).The use of AI: ChatGPT, a powerful natural language processing model, in the field of education, has several significant implications: Enhancing Learning Motivation: Research by Zhou Li (2023) demonstrates that ChatGPT can positively impact students' learning motivation.ChatGPT can foster high motivation, strong self-confidence, and a positive attitude shift among students when integrated into the educational environment.This can be attributed to its ability to provide personalized and interactive support, making learning more engaging and enjoyable.
Improved Writing and Reading Skills: ChatGPT has been found to enhance students' reading and writing abilities generally.It can provide instant feedback, suggest improvements, and help students develop their language skills.This benefit aligns with Ali, Shamsan, Hezam, and Mohammed's (2023) findings, indicating that ChatGPT encourages students to improve their written communication skills.

Support for learning English:
In the context of language learning, students' desire to learn and their belief in having readily available support is crucial.ChatGPT can be a helpful tool for language learners, offering instant translations, language practice, and conversation partners.The positive attitude shift observed in the study by Zhou Li (2023) highlights the potential of ChatGPT in fostering a supportive and motivating environment for language education.
Enhanced Teaching Practices: ChatGPT in the classroom can encourage more motivated teaching.Educators can leverage ChatGPT to provide personalized assistance to students, offer explanations, and facilitate interactive discussions.This can create a more engaging and dynamic learning experience, aligning with contemporary pedagogical approaches emphasizing learner-centered instruction.
Areas for Further Research: While ChatGPT shows promise in various aspects of education, there is still room for more in-depth research.Some areas that require further exploration include the impact of ChatGPT on speaking and listening skills, the potential drawbacks or limitations of ChatGPT in educational settings, and strategies for effectively integrating ChatGPT into the curriculum.
In summary, ChatGPT has the potential to revolutionize education by improving learning motivation, enhancing writing and reading skills, and supporting language learning.Its use in the classroom can create a more engaging and interactive learning environment, benefiting students and educators.However, continued research and experimentation are necessary to understand the implications and challenges of fully integrating ChatGPT into education.While AI can significantly enhance the process of second language acquisition, it is essential to note that it should complement, not replace, human instructors and real-life language practice.AI can provide valuable support and resources, but meaningful communication and cultural understanding often require human interaction.The correlation between AI and SLA is evolving, with technology playing an increasingly prominent role in language education.

SLA Theories
The theoretical framework for this study is grounded in Second Language Acquisition (SLA) theories, particularly the input hypothesis and the interaction hypothesis.These theories posit that language learning is most effective when learners are exposed to "comprehensible input" and have opportunities for interactive communication.In other words, learners benefit slightly from language input above their current level of understanding and from interactive experiences that allow them to negotiate meaning.

AI and SLA
AI tools like Chat GPT align well with these SLA theories.They can provide comprehensible input tailored to the learner's current level of language proficiency and offer interactive experiences that simulate real-world language use.This alignment suggests that AI tools can effectively facilitate language learning and deliver personalized, interactive, and contextually relevant language experiences.
