What a cunt

Duolingo is run by fucking idiots.

What a load of crap. Big tech is not the solution, it’s not even the question, it’s the problem.

Can we replace this guy with AI?

Nothing will meaningfully improve until the rich fear for their lives

"Try Super Duolingo now to avoid interruptions." Interruptions which are only there to promote Super Duolingo in the first place.

As someone who has actually been in a classroom and dealt with 20 kids—fuck off CEO with no real experience dealing with people.

Personalities, learning types, inequity, and so much more contribute to how people learn. A computer program cannot account for this. Also, what are you going to do when a kid doesn’t want to learn from a computer? Strap them down, force their hands on a keyboard, and shock them if they move or visit a program/site that isn’t what you want in that moment of teaching?

Good. Fucking. Luck.

P.S., Duolingo doesn’t do a good job of making you fluent in a language. It might give you basics of understanding, but you aren’t going to be chatting like any sort of native unless things have changed in the last 4 years or so since I tried it. Your platform is piss poor, and the juice leaking from skunk’s rotten anus has more relevance than you.

fuck this fetus looking cum stain.

How can you be that dumb and a ceo at the same time..

I ended my sub and deleted my account when they announced they’d be replacing their contract workers with AI.

Lingonaut looks promising. And I’ve been trying out Language Transfer for Spanish. I’ve learned more about how Spanish “works” in an hour of Language Transfer than I did with months of Duolingo. I’m smacking myself for wasting the time - though I do enjoy the gamification.

In near future all CEOs will be replaced by AI

CEO disdain for humanity, as exhibited by this individual, makes me wonder if people named Luigi might feel that they are needed by CEOs.

Children will just jailbreak the AI. I managed to jailbreak far-right chatbots (until certain platforms started to block common phrases for this purpose), children will be able to do it too.

Also AI is so caca at most jobs the best it could do is help corporations to either produce more low-quality services (which at one point, won't be sustainable) and help in bluffing their way to lower wages and lesser worker protections. At this point, it's barely more than a toy and a spam machine, and most of its supposed cost cuttings rely on both speculations of its future and investment funds to make it look like it's a "free" technology.

The school they discuss that has guides to be the 'human' interaction between the AI learning is charging 40k-65k a year. That's for 2 hours a day of learning.

If it was better than humans, it'd be making life better not more expensive.
