Elon Musk’s xAI startup has launched Grokipedia, a new open-source encyclopedia powered by the company’s Grok chatbot.
Musk previously criticized Wikipedia for being too "biased". He claims that Grok, with 885,279 articles, is already better than Wikipedia, and version 1.0 will be "10x better".
The goal of Grok and Grokipedia.com is the truth, the whole truth and nothing but the truth. We will never be perfect, but we shall nonetheless strive towards that goal.
According to xAI’s Grok chatbot, the key difference between Grokipedia and Wikipedia is that Grokipedia leverages xAI’s Grok to synthesize knowledge from diverse sources, prioritizing maximum truth-seeking over consensus-driven editing.
