Grokipedia

“you can at least correct it even if there is not a journalist pointing out the obvious”

“an LLM-generated repository of vibe-facts seemingly created more to illustrate some reactionary point than to actually serve a practically useful purpose to anyone”

“it does seem to be the most accurate retelling of the scandal that I can find online”

“Grokipedia might be trash in terms of its quality, but at least it it doesn't have omnipresent moral busybodies loitering in to "purify" it from knowledge.”

“you don't have to worry about editors going on strike and acting malicious towards the encyclopedia”

“I also really like the idea of llms as librarians they are trying out with grokapedia”

“it's a model far less influenced by influencer operations”

“I assumed that that whole thing was just a very direct `for each article in Wikipedia { article = LLM(systemprompt, article) }`”

“Musk was unable to impose his own biases upon Wikipedia, so he had to make one where he can tune bias to whatever is convenient at the moment.”

“one site is more likely than the other to contain it, that site is definitionally the better encyclopedia”

“If Grokipedia has an error rate 5%, compared to 1% for Wikipedia, it's probably still fine.”

“Infowars or Grokipedia aren't good authoritative sources and automatically downranks their content or refuses to read it entirely.”

“The fact that Musk's derangement is clear from reading grokipedia articles shows that LLMs are less impervious to ego.”

“Grok can spew out any number of pages on any subject, and those topics that aren't ideologically important to Musk will just be the usual LLM verbiage that might be right or might not.”

“In practice, a lot of pieces need to work out just right for this particular instance of the idea to gain traction.”

“Grokipedia entries are more comprehensive and relevant than Wikipedia ones”

“I was finally able to correct articles that have been inaccurate on Wikipedia for years.”

“The nice thing about grokipedia is that if you have counter examples like that you can provide it as evidence to change it”

“I don't have to worry so much about vandalism like one does on political wikipedia pages.”

“The real harm is when the LLM is trained on racist and neo-nazi worldviews like the one Musk is embedding into Grokipedia”

“Grokipedia's article is significantly less biased and more accurate.”

“far more comprehensive breakdown of the current state of discourse and varying definitions of the term”

“it starts talking about the "9th century Kyivan Rus" which seems like irrelevant information to a conflict over a millenia later”

“represents the most promising attempt in ages to build a genuinely bias-free online encyclopedia”

“Grokipedia is impressive. All edits to the original Wikipedia article are shown, along with source links for the edit.”

“It's consistently better in content quality, for everything that I've used it for.”

“Its certainly an impressive technical feat to have this AI-based wiki project”

“it offends me that someone would look at a lossy compression algorithm and choose the output as their ground truth”

“I took a look at the articles on white nationalism and National Socialism and found them quite informative.”

“Grokipedia is a project motivated by personal grudges and political aims, rather than a neutral technical experiment.”

“Grokepedia is far better than Wikipedia far better for 3 of the 5 I checked.”

“From this page alone it's much more interesting than what I'd expected from an AI-generated site.”

“the thing that really annoys me most about Grokipedia's UX is that it has no blue links to other articles”

“The amount of information and detail is impressive tbh. But I'd be concerned about the accuracy of it all and hallucinations.”

“Grokipedia should do the same. Grokipedia is at version .1 and they have stated the intention is to open source it”

“Okay, but in the very example the article gives, the subject matter that Grokipedia cites InforWars on, is what is written on InfoWars”

“At least Grokipedia tries to look like it was written with the intent to inform, not spoonfeed an opinion.”

“I fail to imagine how putting Wikipedia in the hands of an ideologically captured mega-billionaire will help the fight against bias”

“delivers the most in-depth and objective comparisons between the two encyclopedias”

“At least Grokipedia tries to look like it was written with the intent to inform”
