Welcome to our special issue: The role of AI and ChatGPT in giving corrective feedback: panacea or unfulfilled promise. In a remarkably short span of time, AI-driven feedback has evolved from an experimental pedagogical luxury to a baseline student expectation. Language learners no longer simply wait for instructor guidance; they actively prompt AI systems for structural revisions, stylistic polishing, and pragmatic advice. This shift demands that second language feedback research fundamentally updates its paradigms. The four contributions in this issue offer much-needed empirical clarity, moving past the initial hype of generative AI with rigorous evaluations of its measurable impact on learner development and interlanguage progression.

Special Issue: The Role of AI and ChatGPT in Giving Corrective Feedback: Panacea or Unfulfilled Promise

On behalf of the editorial board, we welcome readers, researchers, and potential authors to the inaugural issue of the new journal Feedback Research in Second Language.&nbsp;The journal aims to fill gaps in research on corrective feedback by publishing a variety of studies to contribute to the scholarly community.&nbsp;While feedback has long been recognized as critical in composition studies and second language writing, Feedback Research in Second Language will push to include studies that explore the intricate characteristics of both oral and written corrective feedback.&nbsp;The journal emphasizes the importance of feedback as a form of assessment in language education, highlighting its role in promoting language accuracy, individualized learning, and motivation, and its position as&nbsp;a powerful form of self-assessment when reflected upon by the writer.&nbsp;
