Will AI render language learning irrelevant?

Food for thought*1 - do you think that advances in AI will mean we don't need to learn languages in the future?

The future of language learning and teaching?

Hi all, I've been reading a lot about A.I. lately - specifically with regard to language learning and I have come across this little darling:

(sorry for my Chinese friends who can't access youtube!)

Basically one theory predicted that A.I. could do away with translators by 2026 - what are your thoughts on this and the future of language learning and teaching?

lol and does anyone have any suggestions about where I should take my career next? ^_^

Daily language learning tips and advice Do you have a daily routine that you follow for learning a language?

How do you stay motivated as a student on italki?

So as a teacher my biggest pet peeve*1 is the student who shows up really enthusiastic and books a whole package of lessons. You make them a study plan and for a week or two you see some progress and then... They vanish! They never get to see themselves progress with the language because they are never around to take classes.

When I worked in schools, obviously this problem didn't exist because children HAD to come to class.

What thoughts do you have as an italki student? I want to see my students progress (and they do, when they study and come to class) but what about those ones that just don't show up? What more could I do to help them progress?

Teaching on the move - any advice from teachers teaching whilst travelling?

Hello fellow teachers, I've been doing a lot of reading about the 'digital nomad' lifestyle and was curious about any online English teachers who have been living without a fixed location and what worked / didn't work for them?

感觉英国大学生活如何？容易找朋友吗？

我想跟那些来英国留学的学生问一下，你感觉英国大学生活如何？容易找朋友吗？

你平时是不是跟中国人一起玩儿，或者你能找得到本地朋友们？你觉得跟本地人交流的障碍（除了语言之外）是什么？
