Résumé: Education is one of the many fields that artificial intelligence has significantly impacted. Since its introduction, artificial intelligence has advanced from basic computational models to a point where machines can understand, generate, and convert in natural language with remarkable ease. English as a Foreign Language has undergone a radical transformation thanks to the creation of sophisticated language models like ChatGPT. This research study aims to determine teachers attitudes towards the use of ChatGPT as a writing assistant and prove its effectiveness. In order to conduct this study a mixed approach was implemented through utilizing three research instruments: first an online interview for 10 English as a Foreign Language teachers at Ibn Khaldoun University of Tiaret, a questionnaire addressed to 57 master two students of linguistics and didactics, in addition to a written test addressed for 2 master two students from linguistics and didactics. The collected data indicates that teachers positively welcome this revolution in education; however, they are still hesitant and expressed concerns about ethical usage.

It can be said that ChatGPT can significantly aid students in writing activities when used correctly, alongside AI detection tools and ethical guidelines to protect academic integrity.
