Abstract:
This review examines the role of Artificial Intelligence (AI) in developing college students’ intercultural competence. It synthesizes research showing how AI tools—including conversational chatbots, intelligent tutoring systems, and virtual reality agents—create scalable, safe environments for practicing communication and cultural norms. While AI demonstrates significant potential for personalized feedback and preparatory training, critical challenges persist, such as embedded cultural biases and the simulation-authenticity gap. The review concludes that AI is most effective as a scaffold within a comprehensive educational framework, preparing students for successful real-world intercultural engagement rather than replacing human-to-human interaction.
