Check out our US CEO, Julie Hansen, speaking with CNN's Julia Chatterley 📺 In this interview, Julie discusses the human touch to learning a language, and highlights the power of unlimited learning with Babbel Live and private classes 🌟 Discover how we integrate AI to enhance, not replace, our dedicated language tutors who are shaping the future of language learning 🤖📚 #Babbel #LanguageLearning #AI #PrivateClasses #BabbelLive
Since The Atlantic published its thought-provoking story in March on "The End of Foreign-Language Education," followed by other language-learning players shedding a portion of their workforce (in part) because of AI, there has been a lot of hand-wringing in the language-learning world about whether AI will undermine the need to learn a language. It was one of the first questions I was asked by CNN in an interview a couple weeks ago. Will AI end language-learning? Absolutely not. I say, bring it on! AI is a huge boon to any casual traveler who needs help conducting a routine transaction. Speaking into your phone for a real-time translation is a miracle! No one needs to invest days/weeks/months into language-learning just to order food or take a taxi or any number of one-off, low-impact tasks. But AI-based real-time translation has its limits. Sticking your phone in your mother-in-law's face every time you converse is not going to endear you to her, for example. Nor does it help you connect with foreign colleagues or have authentic experiences when you travel. For that, you need to do the work and learn a language. AI can help enormously -- enabling better speech recognition, conversation practice, personalized training, content development, motivation mechanics, and more. However, human connection remains at the heart of language learning, and AI can only support, not replace, the work that teachers do, both in product development and live classroom experiences. For years, Babbel has been harnessing the power of AI and its older cousin machine learning to make our app more effective and engaging. We’re only scratching the surface of what this technology can do for us and our learners. We don't believe that AI threatens language-learning -- we believe it will boost it. https://lnkd.in/e8yhw87s

⚖️ Balancing profit with purpose: Babbel CEO takes the stage at TNW 🇳🇱 Last week, Arne Schepker took the stage at TNW Amsterdam to share the journey of Babbel. It was a journey that began with the simple need of one of our founders to learn Spanish, and evolved into a mission-driven company that harnesses the power of language learning to connect and empower individuals and communities 🌍 📈 In striving for a more connected world, we measure our success by the success of our learners. And as we’ve discovered, cultivating a purpose-driven team not only boosts performance, but also creates lasting value. While it might be less efficient in the short term, it's far more effective in the long run 💡 Thank you Ioanna Lykiardopoulou for your insightful questions, and for allowing us to explain how we build our products and cultivate our company culture 🫂 We hope Arne's insights spark new ideas for fellow leaders and tech enthusiasts. Thank you, TNW, for this opportunity 🤝 🚀 🌟 Explore career opportunities with us and join our purpose-driven team: jobs.babbel.com #Babbel #TNW2024 #LanguageLearning #PurposeDriven #Innovation #TechConference
