LTD.10.18063/CEF.v4i4.1873ArticleResearch on the Path of Integrating English Culture into College English Teaching Assisted by AIhttps://artdesignp.com/journal/CEF/4/4/10.18063/CEF.v4i4.1873QiMeirong2026442026-04-26Against the backdrop of in-depth advancement of educational digitalization and continuous deepening of college English teaching reform, cultural integration has become an important part of improving students’ cross-cultural communication competence and cultivating high-quality foreign language talents. With the technological advantages of natural language processing, virtual simulation and big data analysis, artificial intelligence effectively solves practical problems in current college English culture teaching, such as scattered teaching content, single teaching form, insufficient practical training and backward evaluation mechanism. Supported by cross-cultural communication theory and constructivist learning theory, this paper analyzes the current situation and dilemmas of English culture integration teaching in college English teaching, explores the prominent advantages of artificial intelligence applied in culture teaching, constructs the implementation paths of English culture integration teaching from the perspective of intellectualization, and puts forward corresponding safeguard measures. It aims to promote the in-depth integration of college English language teaching and cultural education and to comprehensively improve students’ foreign language literacy.AI-assisted teaching, College English, Cultural integration, Cross-cultural communication
