Elon Musk launches Grokipedia, a new AI-driven alternative to Wikipedia and its “wokeness”

Interesting. I found it (the article doesn't link it) and looked up a few controversial figures on both sides.

It's not like Conservapedia where it's obviously run by hate groups.

That said, it didn't mention Elon Musk's Nazi salutes (he was the first article I looked up), so I guess it's going to try to gloss over bad things done by people Musk likes.

I'm gonna look up Trump after his next spat with Musk and see what Musk's wiki says about him then. That will be interesting.

So I guess it's more of a right-leaning wiki? I dunno.

To its credit, it has dark mode on by default, its navigation is super clean with minimal distractions (then again, I am using an ad blocker) and it generally looks nice. I don't intend to use it though.
