On October 28, Elon Musk announced on X that Grokipedia.com, a competitor to Wikipedia, is online and will contain “truth, the whole truth, and nothing but the truth.”
Currently, Grokipedia has slightly fewer than 900,000 articles and a minimal homepage with a search bar, while Wikipedia hosts seven million articles in its English section alone. While Wikipedia is written by volunteer editors, who are encouraged to cite nearly every sentence they write, Grokipedia contributors are still not known, albeit there are reports that seem to indicate the same AI technology used in Musk’s Grok chatbot.
The creation of Grokipedia directly correlates with Musk defining Wikipedia as full of “propaganda” and urging people to stop donating to it.Of course, Elon Musk is no stranger to bold moves, from revolutionizing tech to reshaping political discourse. Yet behind the headlines, his personal life remains complex.
