Abstract
The integration of artificial intelligence (AI) into language education has opened new avenues for developing second language pronunciation skills. This systematic review synthesizes findings from 22 empirical studies published between 2016 and 2024 on the use of AI-based pronunciation training tools for English language learners. The review examines the types of AI technologies employed, their effectiveness in improving pronunciation accuracy, and the pedagogical implications for classroom practice.
