@thomasrpearson: Is this the end of Duolingo? #fyp #capcut #ai #Aiart #duolingo #duo #language #languages

Wikipedia :

Fun fact, the idea of Duolingo was formulated in 2009 by Carnegie Mellon University professor Luis von Ahn and his Swiss-born post-graduate student Severin Hacker

ivy_0045 :

i genuinely stopped using it when they put the american flag for ‘english’ and marking me wrong for not using american english in translations

Rickadoo :

Companies want AI. Consumers don't.

RJ ✨🌸🍓 :

My streak was nearly 2000. The moment I heard about the AI, I deactivated my account and uninstalled.

ThatCampingOwl :

And companies continue to think AI is good 🤦‍♂️

mentallydyll :

I’ve not seen a fall off this great since Tumblr

freddie1728 :

I stopped using Duolingo years ago because it’s actually pretty bad at teaching you languages

Aguyinthehouse35 :

AI is bad

Senile Robot :

they added a 'battery' that drains every time you answer a question too, and the only way to fill it up and be allowed to carry on answering questions is to watch an ad. the Battery will literally die halfway through a lesson sometimes. It's absolute garbage.

Jojo :

from the creators of "go woke, go broke" now comes "go AI, say Goodbye" 🤣🤣

Pete 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿 :

Microsoft is going this way, they are relying on AI way too much

Meemo :

I call it now; the future ads will include some form of "Human made" to indicate high quality.

Supreme.Thugger :

Me when i ruin the joy of learning to communicate with different people and cultures around the world but its ok because the shareholders get a lot of mula

Nylonbojel :

It’s not about AI, it’s about firing people and use of AI instead to get all the profits for themselves. If you can hire and pay wages of 1000 people without AI then you can even more easily do that with AI. Companies are just extremely greedy

supremeh0nkifex :

When will companies realize NOBODY wants ai

Selongworth99 UK :

It's gonna go full circle in the next 5 years. Products are going to be sold as "AI free"

ItsR3dGuy :

It's funny how everytime a company turns to AI, their shares seem to drop drastically.

antonia_bernardin :

Also, the person that was leading their socials with all the success left last year, and it’s been implied that it’s over them refusing to promote or give her pay rises etc

Mark Markguyver Gibb :

😡Had over 2 years study in Japanese on Duolingo... Quit it once I realized the GAME part was the focus, NOT the LEARNING. And based on the "free samples" I'd "earn", the paid version was even worse than the free.🤦‍♂️

justcommenting :

Duolingo is one of the only apps that has the Irish language available. But ever since AI was introduced, it started being straight up wrong. The Irish language is a partially dead language, meaning internet sources mix up dialects and get grammar wrong constantly. The AI picked up on this, and started inserting Ulster Irish into the taught Munster Irish, which are two different dialects to the same extent that deep Texas English and the Queens English are different.

Banditobambino :

I mean we all know that google translate can’t figure out nuance and will give you a literal word for word translation - so why would AI be any better?

DoodleDeeDraws :

i fear this will just encourage companies to conceal their “ai-first” strategies from now on

Jason is an Alien :

This AI bubble burst is going to be vicious because way too much of the US economy is tied into these companies.
