The rapid development of artificial intelligence (AI) and virtual reality (VR) has transformed language education, particularly in domain-specific contexts. This study investigated the effects of the TalkTIME platform – an immersive AI- and VR-mediated learning environment – on the communicative, terminological, and professional competencies of Biology students at Chirchik State Pedagogical University. A mixed-methods pedagogical experiment was conducted, including diagnostic assessment, a six-week AI-supported instructional intervention, and post-assessment. Data were collected through oral interviews, situational dialogues, micro-presentations, observational protocols, interaction logs, audio-video recordings, and reflective student journals. Results indicated substantial improvements in listening comprehension, accurate use of discipline-specific terminology, oral fluency, and higher-order reasoning. Students engaged more consistently with AI avatars than with traditional classroom interactions, produced longer and more precise explanations, and reported reduced anxiety, heightened motivation, and increased immersion. Adaptive scenario generation and VR-situated contexts were particularly effective in scaffolding critical thinking and professional communication skills. Ethical considerations, including data privacy and algorithmic fairness, were addressed through teacher-mediated interpretation and restricted data collection. Overall, the study demonstrates that AI- and VR-enhanced platforms like TalkTIME can augment teacher-led instruction, foster learner autonomy, and advance domain-specific language competence in higher education settings.
