Duolingo's AI is pretty basic (in my opinion), but even so, this study reports that "Duolingo has a revolutionary effect on language learners' willingness to communicate and participate in class activities." This, in turn, has a significant impact on language learning outcomes. or, in academic verbiage: "The significant effect sizes observed in various engagement and communication dimensions underscore Duolingo's capacity to incite favorable transformations in language learners' perspectives, involvement, and communicative assurance."
