(this is not to say Cummings is right or wrong about other things, just highlighting his observations about ministers)

wild, I never hear of people actually using that any more

And, sure, it's infamous for not actually making people fluent. But there's evidence they learn *something*.

I'm currently working on B2B. But really want to get to 'Duolingo for media' before the end of the year. DM me if this interests you.

More 'Duolingo for media', less 'media literacy' IMO.

That's a simplistic way to say it. But the last thing that already-sceptical citizens want is the government telling them how to discern truth.

Duolingo couples System 2 desires to System 1 aspirations.

What are the outcomes here?

Seems most of the piece is 'The Finnish are very good at media literacy...'

followed by '...as demonstrated by their high media literacy scores'

as opposed to '...and therefore x has improved in their society'.

(only skimmed so maybe I missed it!)

In the same way the Tutorial says "Don't copy-paste", it makes sense to say "Don't LLM".

But how do we avoid losing the spirit of 2019?
