Can Duolingo keep India speaking when AI can translate everything?
About this episode
AI is changing how people learn languages and India is where the shift is showing up first. Duolingo has scale here but very little conversion. At the same time AI tools now offer practice, feedback, and even conversation for free, while Indian platforms focus on jobs, exams, and real outcomes.
In this episode, we look at how language learning is being reshaped in India, why translation is no longer the whole story, and what Duolingo is really defending.
