Are there any viable non-AI alternatives to Duolingo?
Probably not. Translation and language is perfect for AI to work on. People here may hate it, but no business in that market can afford hundreds of employees when the competition uses AI.
Sure they'll produce all the content they need.
But then they'll need even more resources to shift through the hallucinations.
Can anyone suggest a comparable alternative to Duolingo?
Anyon have luck getting a refund for a year subscription?
He's not wrong though. I haven't read the whole post, but the fundamental change in teaching, i.e., having access to the world's knowledge in an individualized offering at a fraction of the cost for similar access before the LLM breakthrough is real.
You should read the whole thing, because then you would have known that he isn't talking about making teaching using ai but using ai in hiring, Performance reviews and not using contractors when ai can do it. So not the fundamental change In Teaching but automated hr work and vibe coding.
