The paper discusses the problem of the artificial future in learning the English language. English occupies a leading place in all spheres of human activity. In the 21st century, it is not easy to imagine human activity without the help of AI. AI, as a unique invention of humanity, has its history. It is also actively used in foreign language learning. Many researchers work in this field, but there is no single conclusion about the positive and negative aspects of using AI in language learning. The research was conducted according to the fundamental question of whether AI is the future or the utopia of learning English. Respondents answered five questions. The results show that all people use AI in their lives. AI is a practical tool in translation and automatic spelling correction. It is not surprising that all respondents have practical communicative experience with AI. Regarding the future of AI, the responses have demonstrated the undeniable need for AI and a positive attitude toward it. However, it is worth remembering that only the intelligent use of AI will have significant consequences in the future.
