[05:09] schestowitz[TR2] "Grokipedia, intended as an alternative to Wikipedia, has debuted.
[05:09] schestowitz[TR2] Elon Musk ordered its creation because he dislikes Wikipedia. He
[05:09] schestowitz[TR2] claims that articles are written by Grok but there are signs of human
[05:09] schestowitz[TR2] intervention notably in places where Musk has a stake.
[05:09] schestowitz[TR2] Grokipedia launched: Can Elon Musk's AI-powered encyclopaedia compete
[05:09] schestowitz[TR2] with Wikipedia?
[05:09] schestowitz[TR2] https://www.firstpost.com/explainers/elon-musk-grokipedia-wikipedia-rival-ai-generated-explained-13945636.html
[05:09] schestowitz[TR2] I tried Grokipedia, the AI-powered 'anti-Wikipedia.' Here's why
[05:09] schestowitz[TR2] neither is foolproof
[05:09] schestowitz[TR2] https://www.zdnet.com/article/i-tried-grokipedia-the-ai-powered-anti-wikipedia-heres-why-neither-is-foolproof/
[05:09] schestowitz[TR2] Wikipedia on Grokipedia

[05:09] schestowitz[TR2] Grokipedia on "Linux"
[05:09] schestowitz[TR2] https://grokipedia.com/page/Linux
[05:09] schestowitz[TR2] According to Wikipedia, "Linux" is an operating system. There is a
[05:09] schestowitz[TR2] separate article for the "Linux kernel". Grokipedia's page for
[05:09] schestowitz[TR2] "Linux" makes it clear from the beginning that it is a kernel.
[05:09] schestowitz[TR2] ---
[05:09] schestowitz[TR2] Grokipedia on Netpbm
[05:09] schestowitz[TR2] https://grokipedia.com/page/Netpbm
[05:09] schestowitz[TR2] Among other issues, the above article gives corrupt file examples
[05:09] schestowitz[TR2] making it useless as an explanation of the Netpbm file formats.
[05:09] schestowitz[TR2] The file examples resemble the valid examples provided by the
[05:09] schestowitz[TR2] Wikipedia article for Netpbm. Clearly Grokipedia is borrowing text
[05:09] schestowitz[TR2] from Wikipedia. And it seems that Grok has trouble understanding
[05:09] schestowitz[TR2] which sequences of ascii characters make up a file.
[05:09] schestowitz[TR2] This means that in general, there are instances in which Grok cannot
[05:09] schestowitz[TR2] distinguish between what an author is stating and what he is quoting.
[05:09] schestowitz[TR2] In its current state, I can't recommend Grok or what it produces."
