Citing the need for rapid scaling of content creation for learners, von Ahn emphasized that relying solely on manual efforts would be unsustainable. Despite acknowledging AI's imperfections, he expressed the urgency for Duolingo to adapt quickly rather than risk delays. This shift reflects a broader trend in the industry towards automation while maintaining a commitment to employee engagement and performance evaluation based on AI experience.
CEO Luis von Ahn outlined how Duolingo will gradually stop using contractors to do work that AI can handle, prioritizing efficiency and scalability.
