The rapid advancement of information technology has produced a number of cutting-edge techniques and resources for improving English speaking. Speaking challenges can be lessened by using Yoodli, a digital tool powered by artificial intelligence (AI). Research on the application of AI in speaking classrooms is still lacking, though, and nothing is known about how students feel about Yoodli specifically. The purpose of this research is to find out more about how students’ speaking and their feeling the use of AI in English-speaking classes. Fifteen first-semester English Language Study Program students from Institut Pendidikan Tapanuli Selatan comprised the sample. According to the study's findings, students had favorable evaluations of AI speaking tools due to their accessibility, versatility, and ease of use. The findings indicate that the students in this study were open to using Yoodli to enhance their speaking abilities and foster more positive attitudes about speaking.
