Abstract: This paper explores the integration of Generative Artificial Intelligence (GAI) into peer feedback in English as a Foreign Language (EFL) writing class as a collaborative companion, aiming at enhancing peer feedback engagement and improving overall writing ability.This study first proposes a framework for integrating GAI in peer feedback, focusing on its dual roles as a feedback provider and recipient, and introduces the steps of implementing GAI in peer feedback.It continues with a discussion of the major advantages of this new feedback approach such as creating a less-pressured learning environment, providing dynamic and customizable feedback and fostering collaboration between humans and GAI.Additionally, the major implications of this study are also discussed.This exploratory study will shed light on a deeper understanding of incorporating GAI as a digital peer to improve students' peer feedback experience in EFL writing classes and equip them with AI competencies.
