Abstract

The integration of Artificial Intelligence (AI) into English as a Foreign Language (EFL) writing processes has led to a paradigm shift in language learning. The aim is to assess how AI technologies, exemplified by Grammarly, impact EFL learners' writing skills. This research was conducted using a descriptive quantitative method. The study's methodology involves conducting a survey to gauge students' perceptions and experiences with Grammarly's grammar-checking capabilities. The findings elucidate both the advantages and limitations of using Grammarly for writing enhancement. The research reveals Grammarly's effectiveness in identifying grammatical errors, providing explanations, and instilling writer confidence. However, concerns are raised regarding potential overreliance on AI and instances where meaning might be inadvertently altered. The study concludes with recommendations for striking a balanced approach to AI integration in EFL writing education, emphasizing the importance of maintaining foundational language skills alongside AI assistance.
