*Ping!*

“Hi! It’s Duo. It’s time for your daily Spanish lesson.”

For those of us who have used the app Duolingo to learn a new language, the reminders popping up on our phone screens from the app’s owl mascot can feel like both a gift and a curse (depending on the circumstance). However, there is no denying that the AI system that keeps track of our progress, strength, and weaknesses - when it comes to learning, at least - is anything but impressive. A little while back, we shared an illustration that Eddie Guy created for IEEE Spectrum Magazine about said AI technology, titled “How Duolingo’s AI Learns What You Need To Learn”. Today, Eddie is able to share some of the other 3D-artworks he created of the strict but fair little green owl and its inner workings. Maravilloso!
