Amid global intelligent education reform

artificial intelligence (AI) has served as a core driver for the innovation in college English teaching

especially in listening and speaking instruction. This paper probes into how AI technology - including automated feedback mechanisms

conversational agents

personalized learning systems

and multimodal content generators - are being utilized to enhance college English teaching in terms of listening and speaking instruction. Simultaneously

it attempts to analyse the obstacles accompanying this technological shift: insufficient integration of technology and instruction

questioned academic integrity

lack of humanistic elements

weakened learner autonomy and concerns for data security. Based on that

the paper further proposes a blended "AI+HI" paradigm that conceptualizes artificial intelligence as a complementary instrument rather than a replacement for human pedagogical expertise.
