AI can't teach you manners lmao

Dude just can't help himself. Gotta open his mouth and dropkick his own throat.

All because he fucked up.

Certainly nobody needs Duolingo to learn anything

[–] pineapplelover@lemm.ee 1 points 2 days ago

I use duolingo every day and it's alright for vocabulary. It actually recently had some voice exercises to practice everyday conversation and it has been great as well.

What a take.

Schools will continue to exists because education centers makes plain dense for almost any halfdecent society.

Wether the teachers are a personal ai or a single human does not change that. Schools provide way more then just “a teacher”

That's like exactly what he says, you just restated his take...

I want to learn a couple languages soon. I won't be using Duolingo to do so now.

These paint chip eating overgrown children are so detached from reality it's not even funny.

[–] KumaSudosa@feddit.dk 6 points 2 days ago

Oh don't worry, using Duolingo would've never taught you a language anyway!

I say: I can't stand the CEO of Duolingo, and his supremely punchable smirk-face.

[–] xenomor@lemmy.world 21 points 2 days ago

I regret that I have no duolingo account that I can cancel.

the green duolingo owl has the chance to do the funniest thing

[–] Litebit@lemmy.world 1 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago) (1 children)

I noticed too many hallucinations in AI, We don't want to learn the wrong things. For beginners, the risk of learning the wrong thing is high and just add to confusion. I switched back to humans for most things.

The solution should be something that isn't just free, but also open-source.

Any alternatives for learning Japanese? I have already learned about 500 words and 20 kanji.

[–] Dalraz@lemmy.ca 3 points 2 days ago

I am using lingodeer to learn korean, but i know it also has Japanese. I was using duolingo for korean and Japanese, but the korean lessons were terrible.

Maybe some of the resources on this site can help.

[–] engineer@infosec.pub 2 points 2 days ago

I haven't used it much, but https://www.wanikani.com/ claims they are pretty good.
