Even assuming we're okay with using AI for language learning - then why would anyone pay for Duolingo instead of the many LLMs that people already use and pay for?
They've alienated their customer base hard. And this marketing video pretending they are siding with the users and against "their corporate overlords" is horribly tone deaf.
Perhaps because their app and its gamification of learning is addictive and quite fun.
This is it for me. All of this has me pretty down, because the gamification works really well on me and I enjoy it. But fuck AI.
