A.I. Teachers and Duolingo's New Plan -- What Could Go Wrong?



Hi Friends,

This week I wanted to share my thoughts on the increased effort to replace teachers, in multiple spaces, with A.I.

In the U.K. school system A.I. as a headmaster is being introduced with several adults assisting the A.I. in instruction but not working as the actual teachers.

At the same time Duolingo is facing massive backlash and plummeting in users after committing to put A.I. above teachers, and some would say, above customer experience.
