AI and Duolingo: investigating learning and linguistics, with Erin Gustafson

  • Summary

  • Over 500 million people around the world have now used language learning platform Duolingo since it launched in 2012, and AI and gamification play a vital role in keeping learners coming back for more. In today’s episode, we're speaking with Erin Gustafson, Lead Data Scientist at Duolingo, to discuss how these tools are deployed across the app, and Duolingo’s passion for making learning linguistics accessible for all. We also discuss the rapid growth they have experienced since starting out as a small tech startup, the future of linguistics as translation technologies continue to develop, and the importance of being able to order coffee wherever you may be in the world! We hope you enjoy episode 15!
