> I am learning Polish, and find that ChatGPT provides a much better tutor than any human

That’s a stretch, unless your goal is to think you can speak a language rather than actual speak.

Unless you consider all people you ever talk to for tutors, I think that statement is a, well, stretch.

In language learning you rarely learn alone from you tutor. The same is the case here: I also watch videos, movies, listen to music, practice pronunciation on friends, etc. Justlike you would with a human tutor.
