This paper adopts a problem–strategy framework to explore how AI-enhanced teaching can effectively promote communication competence among university students. It first identifies key challenges in the current intercultural education system, including limited authentic communication opportunities, insufficient teacher literacy in AI technologies, a lack of integration between technology and pedagogy, and inadequate evaluation systems. To address these issues, a set of AI-enhanced strategies is proposed, such as immersive learning environments, intelligent feedback systems, and teacher digital empowerment. The discussion aims to provide theoretical insights and practical guidance for universities seeking to modernize intercultural communication education in the age of digital intelligence.</p>2025-11-14T11:49:23+08:00Copyright (c) 2025 Author(s)
