Abstract
This chapter evaluates the use of AI for redesigning a foreign (Arabic) language course to significantly incorporate several SDGs. The course provides conditions for experiential learning where students examine their impact on the planet, make meaningful improvements to their lifestyles to lower their carbon footprint, and grow as thoughtful global citizens. It also stimulates students to reflect on the differences between Western and Arab countries' engagement with sustainability goals through real-world scenarios. The analysis focuses on the positive contributions and challenges that AI presents toward the redesigning goal. In particular, it explores how using AI technology in class and for creating course materials affects HIPs elements: significant time on task; frequent, timely feedback; substantive interactions with faculty, peers, and diverse people and ideas; structured reflection and integration of learning; real-world applications; public demonstration of competence; significant learning elements: foundational knowledge, application, integration, human dimension, and learning to learn.

Large Language Models (LLMs) are sophisticated AI systems trained on vast amounts of textual data, allowing them to learn complex linguistic patterns. The versatility of LLMS makes them useful tools that could be applied to language processing tasks such as translation, answering questions, and providing summaries. Within the umbrella of Generative AI tools available to the public, ChatGPT, developed by OpenAI, falls under the category of an LLM-based chatbot. Other LLM-based chatbots include Bard, developed by Google, and Ernie, developed by Baidu. While Google Translate is an LLM, it is not an LLM-based chatbot.
