🔮 What are you doing right now? 🔮

I don’t use them but I did enjoy their owl shenanigans on TikTok.
Was funny watching their rise and then crash&burn after they made their AI statement (which they have since tried to walk back).
Have you been following that at all? I’m curious how/if it will impact how other brands publicize their AI usage.

I hate AI for a lot of reasons so I've still never used chatgpt but I haven't really been paying attention to Duolingo's statements. I did hear they fired a lot of staff in favor of AI which is disgusting but inevitably going to happen in as many industries as they can get away with. Something tells me that there won't be some utopian future coming where everyone works a few hours per week and AI picks up the slack but I'm getting sidetracked.
Their use of AI the only reason I'm considering cancelling my super subscription or whatever it's called. I hate to give up on an 8 year streak but I also hate to be a hypocrite. I'm paying for it anyway so I may as well pay a bit more for a more reputable language learning platform. Do you use any that you'd recommend?

Always good to find someone else with similar stances towards AI.

I mostly agree with this take too, but if there’s an alternative, I’ll do my best to find it. I don’t think there’s much I can do aside from vocally/monetarily support my artist/creative friends.

The art stealing probably fires me up the most

I could ask if you'd need company, but I feel we don't know each other enough for that.

Me? I'm having the last of my beer and snaps after the dinner.

Just found a nice one drawer side table at Goodwill for $13. And then a black 48” long table for the hallway for $43. The condo is coming together nicely.

Finished all my chores so I’m soaking up some sun for a bit.
