Learn a new language by speaking with AI
Users discuss a language learning tool, noting UX improvements, feature suggestions like a difficulty selector and pinyin for Chinese, and comparing it to Duolingo. Feedback on language-specific performance varies, with some praising its conversational aspects and others pointing out issues like awkward phrasing and factual errors. Questions about pronunciation validation and AI's sentence interpretation are raised. The tool is seen as advanced, with some users finding it too challenging. There's a request for a trial period and mixed feelings about AI chatbots and their quirks.
Users report difficulty managing messages with the bot, and a non-functional red button. The difficulty selector is disabled, causing confusion. There's a lack of clarity on the product's differentiation from dictionaries and suitability for non-English speakers. Criticisms include unnatural AI speech patterns, the absence of pinyin display, incorrect phrasing in multiple languages, awkward sentences, overcorrection, and factual errors. Users desire multiple difficulty levels and clear next steps. Concerns about high power consumption, unclear pronunciation validation, and AI misinterpreting sentences were also noted. The product lacks a universal language option and a trial period.
