Elon to launch Grokipedia, an AI Wikipedia competitor, in two weeks

Yup.

It's really zero difference compared to a company implementing a new data/ERP system.

The goal is is new tool gets fed all this data compiled from different feeds and spits it out into a one consistent tool everyone can use.

It's great when everything is accurate. But there's always issues with data integrity, which then you log a ticket for the IT crew to fix. Casual users dont know any different and assume the results are good. But knowledgeable people know by just looking at it if something is off. And when the data is off and nobody knows any different, it can lead to stupid stats, decisions and analysis.

You can always tell when someone doesn't know anything or is careless. Some data columns can have an issue and it's literally generating zero/blank data and the person still doesn't even notice.

Why do people keep hoping this will be unbiased? Musk and X have manipulated Grok on X multiple times if it says something he doesn't like, and his stance on free speech has been quite select. Surely he should prove he can be unbiased first or make a statement that he'll never tamper with the AI.
 

There's some other stuff going on at the moment with The Free Press but this week all articles are free so enjoy

The Free Press was just acquired by Paramount and Bari Weiss is taking over as Editor in Chief of CBS News is the other stuff btw
 
Google AI and Grok both suck.

Googles AI sucks for "trigger" topics where it's trained to be politically correct, but for non political or social usecases, it's a top 3 and expected to be #1 in many aspects again with Gemini 3.0 coming soon. The million token context window is huge. Claude seems to be pulling away on coding at a faster rate, but we'll see.
 
What's so woke about Wikipedia? Can anyone at least list a few examples instead of just spouting shit.

edit-

Found something


This must be very woke for flat earthers too, no?

edit 2-

If you think Wikipedia is woke, then you must think Chatgpt is woke as well. They usually have the same views on most topics...

People are even calling science woke nowadays, so I guess we're just living in a weird timeline..

Wikipedia posts misinformation like this page. The attempted murderer was a man not a woman, and was charged in all of his federal docs under his legal name (that has not been changed). Yet Wikipedia uses his fake name and she/her pronouns and pretends a woman did this crime.

What's even more upsetting is they have the audacity to do the same with male serial killers. The percentage of "female" serial killers is suddenly multiplied if you're searching under Wikipedia's gender identity nonsense.

Thank you for the AI generated post. Competition is still good. If grokipedia ends up being successful, it may likely end up improving Wikipedia in someway, which people are free to continue using.


Argument wasn't competition being bad. It's that he's fundamentally, not about being objective but an echo-chamber, which is verifiable by any metric, including AI, which itself is generally a better tool than Elon Musk.

If this ultimately highlights further what a fundamentally corrupt personality he is through competition, wonderful, he's now actually helping humanity rather than blowing up some tax payed rockets.

Well, we all have our biases I suppose but I think Twitter became less of an echo chamber once he took over. People can choose the least worst option.
 
I'm guessing it will start as totally unmoderated AI wild west - there will be entries saying that evolution is just a hypothesis, there are no definitive proofs of holocaust ever happening and that supporters of the flat Earth theory are badly treated by the mainstream media and not given voice.

Then Elon will find something offensive to him personally (like not being listed among the top Path of Exile 2 players) and will start fiddling with the content manually
