Austin Armstrong, CEO and co-founder of Syllaby, has drawn attention to AI-assisted language learning with a social media post saying that ChatGPT taught him more Spanish in seven days than Duolingo did in two years.
In the post, Armstrong describes using ChatGPT for personalised Spanish practice, including conversation, corrections, and everyday phrases. However, the comparison reflects Armstrong's personal experience and does not claim that ChatGPT is more effective than Duolingo for language learning.
