What is Personal Development

The growth of generative artificial intelligence (for purposes of this chapter, “AI”) has created endless systems to utilize modern technological assistance in the educational arena. AI has the potential to significantly impact higher education by facilitating personalized development and knowledge sharing. There are many ways that AI can be leveraged to enhance the education process. This chapter will focus on second-language users and bilingual students learning new language concepts. Second language users can be defined as students in the language acquisition process. A bilingual student is any student who has already acquired a second language but needs to build on terminology in their field of study. AI can provide a functional teaching tool for educators to assist with building the required knowledge base. The premise is to embrace the tool—versus forbidding its use by students—to assist them in their educational growth.
