Spaced repetition is incredibly inefficient. Despite exponential guarantees, there's information and incredibly complex concepts that are with me forever, after learning about it once.

Yet somehow a German word is impossible to remember.

LLMs suck, because their goal is not to improve learning. Same way Duolingo sucks, the goal is to optimize global metrics over a massive userbase, not optimize individual metrics, where each individual has its own context.

True with all the apps. Hated this about working with Tinder.

All the conversations, KPIs are "What gets the most users, makes them stay on the app longest, paying the most money". 4 years and not a single conversation about how to improve dating.
