To what extent do you encounter hallucinations of foreign-language grammar (or vocabulary)? It looks like one person here is complaining that the application has hallucinated a non-existent verb form in one context.
That would be my biggest fear about using a language model for foreign language study ... being taught something wrong or significantly unidiomatic (perhaps by example), and then having to unlearn it later on.

A human tutor might be less likely to make a mistake, but they would probably also get it wrong more consistently if they did. As usual with language models, I think the key is to learn to live with their limitations as well as their strengths.
