We are building Grokipedia @xAI.
Will be a massive improvement over Wikipedia.
Frankly, it is a necessary step towards the xAI goal of understanding the Universe.

Really pleased with this. Have bashed my head more times than I care to remember over wrong information on Wikipedia that is uncorrectable based on their chosen narrative.

Wikipedia is hopelessly biased. An army of left-wing activists maintain the bios and fight reasonable corrections. Magnifying the problem, Wikipedia often appears first in Google search results, and now it’s a trusted source for AI model training. This is a huge problem.
Yup,
Grok has been, if imperfectly, even handed. I expect the same for Grokpedia.
Good, Most AI only repeats what Wikipedia and The New York Times publish.
i.e. whatever the latest mockingbird memo tells them to publish.
Good. Wikipedia is utterly worthless for any subject that is even remotely political.
Will this be another case of AI just making up stuff?
This has been needed for a couple of decades.
Thank God for Elon Musk!
HOORAY Elon!
Yet I’ve had the same problems with Grok. I’ve caught serious errors (like Tyler Robinson was killed in a car crash in Illinois the day he murdered Charlie Kirk to errors in programming and errors in logic). Grok often leads with leftist viewpoints and changes course after you call it out on that.
I’ve never tried conversations with AI systems. What I’m always after is the intelligent encyclopedia. I was just in a conversation with someone and wanted to remember the name of a professor I had in 1967. So I asked AI, wondering how they could ever come up with an answer to a question so obscure. Instantly it came back up with a list of all the art professors at my school that year and there was the name I remembered suddenly with such affection.
For me, these AI systems are a dream that’s become reality. I don’t need a friend who is not really a friend. I’ve got a rich enough fantasy life on my own. I need facts. And I don’t ask for facts on emotionally laden topics. If I do, I’ll ask for links and do my own research, balancing all the opinions on the topic.
