I was gonna say language learning is actually one of the few AI might be useful for, but they're not talking about making their users learn with a little AI translator having a random conversation with them; they're replacing their workforce with AI.

Fuck. I was considering using Duo once I finish school to give myself some more options to flee the US as we dive deeper into nazism. Any good alternatives?

They already have AI driven conversations if you pay.

Which is about the extent AI could benefit a service like Duolingo. Gutting their workforce isn't going to make it any better.
