Duolingo put its sarcastic teen chatbot to work on its earnings call

Duolingo's recent earnings call featured an AI chatbot named Lily as a novel way to present the company's performance for the quarter. The purple-haired chatbot showcased key metrics such as the 54% year-over-year increase in daily active users to 37.2 million. Duolingo attributed its growth to social media marketing and investments in generative AI. While Lily's appearance was a marketing strategy to humanize the brand, it reflected the company's dedication to AI, including the use of OpenAI's GPT-4 for interactions. Duolingo reported $192.6 million in revenue, exceeding expectations, but fell short on the number of paid subscribers. Despite this, the company's stock has been performing well, driven by its gamified language learning approach.
