Thanks for sharing, Chris! How does something like this compare to direct ChatGPT usage? I didn't sign up, but I'm interested in LLMs for language learning and I'd like to understand what you've built compared to what I'd get by asking ChatGPT to be my Spanish pen pal tutor.

Thanks for the comment! The main difference is the use of speech instead of text. At school, I could read/write in French, but then was absolutely lost speaking to French people. If you want to speak a language, you have to speak it. The fluency score is also quite useful for tracking your progress. I tried to get ChatGPT to give a fluency score, but it simply couldn't do it so I had to build some software to create a fluency score using rate of speech and the number of unique words you use.
