Duolingo shouldn't have said anything about adopting AI. Like any new technology, it should be adopted in a slow rollout, A/B tested, fine tuned, etc. After it produces results, don't give credit to AI, give the credit to Duolingo.

Some might even avoid Duolingo simply to 'fight back' against AI.

The user interfaces on streaming services seem to range from unhelpful to obstructionist in this paradigm. It has to be deliberate design choice.
