Abstract: This paper investigates the attitudes of English Language and Literature (ELL) students towards utilising ChatGPT in their content mastery and development of English language skills, with an emphasis on student views about the drawbacks and benefits of educational AI use. We studied 110 Turkish undergraduates, collecting data using a 5-point Likert scale at a public university in Türkiye. The results showed that students use ChatGPT primarily as a hands-on, adaptable resource to support their learning and content mastery. Considering this, the study also unveils concerns about information accuracy, ethical issues, and lack of control. The study recommends that policymakers, researchers, and educators should collaborate more analytically and practically to guarantee the productive and justifiable use of AI instruments and applications such as ChatGPT in foreign language and content learning, realizing their potential as new and necessary tools in the educational baskets of learners today.
