0851 ET - Duolingo unveiled a new Video Call feature at its Duocon event that lets users have an AI-powered conversation with the Duolingo character Lily that simulates natural dialogue. The new feature is the company's first step toward a more conversational learning experience, JMP analysts say in a research note. In their test, the analysts noted that latency was an issue,but that should improve over time with AI models and the experience will likely become more personal and complex, they say. Video Calls are expected to accelerate learning for intermediate speakers and unlock a larger market of advanced learners, the analysts say. (dean.seal@wsj.com)
