This paper examines the influence of AI-assisted English education on patients, particularly focusing on cognitive development and brain function. With the increasing integration of artificial intelligence in educational settings, AI-driven tools have emerged as effective resources for enhancing language learning experiences. This study highlights how personalized and interactive learning experiences can significantly benefit patients, especially those with language disorders, cognitive impairments, or various neurological conditions. Engaging in structured language learning exercises not only stimulates neuroplasticity but also enhances cognitive flexibility, improves memory retention, and strengthens executive functioning skills. Moreover, our study also discusses specific applications of AI-assisted English education within rehabilitative contexts, emphasizing its potential to facilitate recovery in patients suffering from conditions such as aphasia, cognitive decline, and those recovering from strokes. Furthermore, the research investigates how these AI tools can be tailored to meet the unique needs of individual patients, thereby maximizing their engagement and learning outcomes. While the advantages of AI in education are substantial, the paper also addresses several challenges that can arise, including issues related to access to technology, the potential for over-reliance on digital tools, concerns regarding data privacy, and the variability in individual differences in learning responses. Finally, addressing these challenges is crucial for maximizing the benefits of AI-assisted education inpatient rehabilitation. The findings suggest that AI-assisted English education can play a vital role in enhancing cognitive health and improving recovery outcomes. This warrants further research to explore its long-term effects and effectiveness across diverse patient populations, ultimately contributing to the broader field of cognitive rehabilitation and language learning.
