    Default Grokipedia - Elon Musk Latest Offering

    Elon Musk launched Grokipedia on October 27, 2025. This is a new product that is going to compete with Wikipedia. I am delighted that this is happening because if you use Wikipedia as a research source, you quickly conclude that it is a very biased product. On occasion, it is blatantly biased, but most frequently, it is biased by omission. It is early days for Grokipedia and the content is fairly slim, but that should start to change in short order. It is my opinion that having two encyclopedias will eventually make both better.

    The rest of what is written here is AI-generated.

    Here is what AI has to say about the difference between the two products.
    The primary difference between Wikipedia and Grokipedia is that Wikipedia is updated by human volunteers, while Grokipedia's content is primarily generated and updated by artificial intelligence. Wikipedia relies on a global community of editors who write, review, and revise articles based on consensus and verifiable sources. In contrast, Grokipedia uses xAI’s Grok language model to automatically create, fact-check, and update content in near real-time, with limited human intervention. This fundamental distinction affects their update speed, editorial control, and overall approach to accuracy and transparency.

    Here is what Elon Musk has to say about Grokipedia
    In Elon Musk's words, Grokipedia is a "maximum truth-seeking" alternative to Wikipedia, designed to eliminate what he calls "propaganda" and offer a faster, less censored source of truth that reflects what is really happening rather than what traditional editors or institutions choose to publish.

    He described it as “the truth, the whole truth and nothing but the truth”.
    Musk positioned Grokipedia as a necessary step toward xAI’s goal of “understanding the Universe” and claimed it would “purge out the propaganda” he perceives in Wikipedia, which he has criticized as “Wokipedia” with a left-wing bias.

    He delayed the launch briefly to ensure more work could be done to remove propaganda, stating that the platform needed to be refined before release. Musk envisions Grokipedia as a bold corrective to traditional encyclopedias, using AI to keep knowledge in pace with rapid technological change.

    For those that are married to Wikipedia here is what they have to say about Grokipedia.
    For those interested here is what Grokipedia says about Wikipedia.

    AI is WRONG. It should read: Wikipedia is run by BIASED humans who write mainstream lies such as BIG PHARMA lies, etc, etc, etc.

    This is just another one of the endless examples that we cannot trust AI.

    There is no replacement for rolling up one's sleeves and spending the necessary time doing very deep, unique, independent research focused on seeking TRUTH that bypasses the bullsh*t of fake history, false beliefs and propaganda. That also includes going to a large library that has not thrown out old books and buying old books from used book stores. One also has to deprogram oneself of all "beliefs" and belief systems, and not only question "authority" but also QUESTION EVERYTHING.

    I certainly don't hold out much hope for "Grokipedia" which comes from a man who is still using old, outdated "rocket thrust" technology when the secret government is using advanced ET technologies.

    Will Grokipedia expose all the way-above-top-secret information that has already been revealed by we HUMANS without any help from computers? I don't think so. If it did, it would be censored or programmed to censor itself, bearing in mind this entire planet is based upon secrecy, lies, deception, chaos, endless wars, false religions, nefarious secret societies, psychopathic elitists, etc, ad nauseum.
