Duolingo CEO says AI is a better teacher than humans—but schools will exist ‘because you still need childcare’
Duolingo replaced its contract workers with AI. Now its eyes are set on schools.

Duolingo is run by fucking idiots.
I hate this app so much now. It has become the poster child of enshittification by gamification.
Wait, is gamification bad now?
It can be done to a stupid degree. Duolingo defines the outer limits.
And it's so true about Duolingo. They push you to "play" to a point that it's stressful. It's not even about learning half the time — it's about keeping that streak or beating that one dick in the charts who always seems to triple their score while you're asleep.
My daughter keeps texting me screenshots of her “streak” achievements as if that means anything. And then when I ask her how to say something in German she barely knows a thing.
Lernt man den Grammatik auf Duolingo? Ich weiß es nicht weil ich benutze das nicht.
Ich glaube dass die Antwort heißt nein. Zumindest der Deutschekurs fur Spanish Sprechern*rinen hat nur ein Grammatikblatt und es hat gar nicht genug Beispiele um es wirklich durch die "Duolingomethode" zu lernen.
Allerdings habe ich beim Duolingo eine Menge Wörter gelernt.
Lernt man denn Grammatik auf Duolingo? Ich weiß es nicht weil ich sie nicht benutze.
Fixed (although most likely not perfect, since that is always debatable).
Thanks, why did you change den to denn though?
"den" is a pronoun which does not make sense/does not fit the gender in this context.
So I changed it to "denn" which is an adverb which in this case is hard to translate but boils down to something like "at all" in this sentence. Eg do you learn grammar there at all.
If you want to use a pronoun with the correct gender then it would be "die" (female) which is technically correct but sounds weird in this case.
So you could simply leave it out which would sound more natural.
Oh thanks, I did make a mistake there then

Makes sense. I read your comment as any gamification is shit; my bad!
