As Artificial Intelligence (AI) grows in accessibility and popularity, educators are faced with the challenge to adopt this new form of information disbursement. AI platforms could benefit language learning by providing individual writing support in addition to classroom teacher instructional support. AI platforms could pose risks to student fidelity with AI produced work product. This paper will discuss and exemplify the use of QuillBot, an AI writing platform, that could be used as a teaching and learning tool for second language (L2) writing instruction. By using this technology to plan meaningful and student tailored lessons, educators can continue to provide an interactive learning space for multilingual learners (MLs) in the language classroom.
