This paper aims to explore the potential of ChatGPT to serve as a comprehensive English learning platform for public school context by analyzing previous literature and current AI-based chatbots. To this end, the study investigated the potential of ChatGPT through four research questions: First, what are the educational possibilities of English learning chatbots?; Second, what are the possibilities and limitations of English learning chatbots when applied in classroom lessons?; Third, how can ChatGPT be utilized in classroom lessons?; Fourth, how can ChatGPT be utilized when applied to an intelligent adaptive learning model? The main conclusions of this discussion are as follows: First, the capabilities of AI-based English learning chatbots rely on natural language processing abilities, conversation modeling, providing dynamic feedback to learners, and offering personalized learning experiences which are lack in existing AI chatbots. Second, conventional English learning chatbots have been utilized in school education as free conversation apps, debate-specific bots, and integrated learning platforms. Third, ChatGPT has the potential to be integrated into a language learning platform and applied in formal learning environments. Finally, this paper proposes a plan to utilize ChatGPT in the context of an intelligent adaptive learning model.
