GenAI and language learning

It feels like the chatter about AI (as they say, when most people mean generative AI only) seems to be as vast as the ocean … And that is a good thing; we are dealing with a complex rapidly moving challenge-cum-opportunity.

Recently, I wrote about 7 lessons from 70 years in the context of AI. These blogposts were early drafts of a book chapter that has now come out:

Yijen Wang, Antonie Alm, and Gilbert Dizon (Eds.) (2025). Insights into AI and Language Teaching and Learning. Castledown.

And my chapter “ICALL and AI: Seven lessons from seventy years” is available as open access until December 31, 2025: https://castledown.online/reference/9781763711600-02/

Enjoy this book chapter and the many other chapters of that book. And let me know what you think …
