English language learners may now practice AI conversations with Google

With the use of artificial intelligence (AI), Google has released a new tool that helps English language learners improve their conversational abilities. With the help of this cutting-edge function, users can practice speaking right from their smartphones by having practice talks with an AI bot.

When the speaking practice tool was first released in October 2023, it could only provide feedback on certain spoken phrases. But as part of its continuous language-learning initiative, Google has now extended its capabilities to enable users to participate in active discussions.

The function is a useful tool for immersive language practice and is now accessible to users taking part in Google’s Search Labs in a few different locations, including Argentina, Colombia, India, Mexico, Venezuela, and Indonesia. Although Google’s primary goal for this function is to help users learn English, it plans to expand its language support in the future.

Google understands how important it is to provide language learners all the resources they need to improve their skills. While Google takes a different approach from established language learning programs such as Duolingo and Babbel, which provide organized curricula and progression systems, the AI conversation practice tool enhances the available resources by providing realistic simulations of real-world conversations.

Google hopes to help students improve their speaking skills and grasp the use of language in context by using AI technology. In order to serve a wide range of international audiences, the platform aims to increase the number of languages it supports, in addition to improving its translation skills.

The use of AI-assisted language learning is growing in popularity as websites like Duolingo include chatbot features and use cutting-edge AI models to improve language learning outcomes. Google’s foray into this market demonstrates its dedication to providing cutting-edge solutions to language learners in search of engaging and dynamic practice possibilities.

Future plans for Google’s language learning capabilities hint to more language support and improved learning opportunities for people everywhere. Although the platform’s long-term goals are yet unknown, Google’s commitment to providing language learners with useful and entertaining resources is shown by the launch of the AI conversation practice function.
