Abstract: This study examined the integration of Artificial Intelligence-powered learning tools in language education in the Philippines using the thematic analysis method outlined by Thomas and Harden. The analysis covers multiple qualitative research studies, systematically identifying, analyzing, and interpreting key themes across the data. The findings revealed four primary themes: perceived usefulness, creativity, daunting challenges, and ethical hurdles. AI tools significantly improved language proficiency among students and educators by offering valuable resources for writing support, fostering creativity, and streamlining administrative tasks. However, challenges related to technological infrastructure, data privacy, and academic integrity were identified, emphasizing the need for responsible AI implementation. Ethical concerns regarding cultural sensitivity and potential academic dishonesty were also highlighted. The study underscores the importance of developing comprehensive policies and training programs to address these challenges while promoting effective AI integration in the classroom. This research contributes to understanding AI’s role in reshaping language education in the Philippine context, emphasizing the need for continuous evaluation and adaptation of educational practices.
