The Role of AI in English Studies: Analyzing Its Impact on Language and Literature

Author : Mehraj Hussain Para and Dr. Haseeb Ahmed JA Majeed

Abstract :

This research paper critically examines the transformative role of artificial intelligence in English studies, focusing on its impact on language analysis, literary interpretation, and creative production. Integrating insights from computational linguistics, literary theory, and digital humanities, it investigates the dynamic intersection of algorithmic processes and humanistic inquiry across pedagogy, textual analysis, creative collaboration, and ethics. The study highlights a fundamental paradox between AI’s ability to detect novel textual patterns and the inherently contextual nature of literary meaning. It further examines ethical concerns such as plagiarism, algorithmic bias, and professional displacement, proposing nuanced frameworks for navigating these challenges. Ultimately, the research reconceptualizes AI as not merely an external tool but an embedded participant in the evolving practices of linguistic and literary engagement.
