Abstract: English for Specific Purposes (ESP) courses are designed to meet the language needs of learners in specific professional contexts. In recent years, the possibility to integrate Artificial Intelligence (AI) tools into ESP teaching has attracted the attention of researchers and practitioners in the field of language teaching who have investigated their potential to enhance learning outcomes and address the diverse needs of learners. This paper provides an overview of the potential benefits and challenges associated with the integration of AI tools in ESP pedagogy and explores some AI tools with the purpose of offering practical examples of how AI technology might be exploited in the ESP practice and to what results.
