From the comments it sounds like Duolingo is still retaining some contractors to verify AI correctness.
However I’m more concerned with the next 5 years. As AI inevitably gets more integrated in products and services, how will people know when AI is wrong?
My biggest fear is that AI will make us all dumber because people assume the computer is right. I see this already with some end users of the software I write.
I know my programs have bugs, sometimes they are wrong. But the average user believes it to be true because it is on the screen. For some reason that is an authority.
Maybe companies who use AI in their producers should be legally required to retain subject matter experts to verify correctness. Maybe AI should be banned from processing queries about health, or other sensitive fields?

- eddd-ddde 3y agoI guess for some things is valid for others not so much. Language? Sure, vocabulary and grammar changes. Math? not so sure.
- catchnear4321 3y agomath, absolutely. the answer does not need to be completely wrong, just outside of safe tolerances.

Even Microsoft Windows has lots of parallel movements is creating unnecessarily singular batch of detection, that do make sense when translated back into English. That’s indeed a bit problematic, I guess we’ll see if they finally feel it.
