Don't like the 'left liberal bias' of cited and sourced Wikipedia articles? Not a problem, our lord and savior Elon is introducing Grokipedia.

    It would be so funny if someone hacks the site and only changes that, and nobody notices for weeks…

  What’s with his obession with the name “grok” though? Sounds like the sound frog made

    It’s from a book I love, Robert Heinlein’s Stranger in a Strange Land. The word is the Martian term for fully understanding something.

      That’s really funny. He steals the name Tesla and Grok and when he tries to come up with his own names, we get “X” and “X Æ A-Xii”

    I believe it is from the book stranger in a strange land. Its meaning is like to deeeeply understand, I think.

      That’s fucking hilarious for an LLM.

    You got the original explanation, but grok was taken up by computer nerds way back in the day. It’s not merely understanding a thing, in the book or the slang. To grok means to completely wrap your head around the subject, not merely surface level understanding.

    Doesn’t anyone remember groklaw? I feel like sometimes only I remember the early Internet anymore….

      I fully expect the SCO case to be resurrected at some point in this timeline. Then they’ll know.

    Funny you say that. In Serbia, they say the noise a pig makes is “grok”. My wife burst out laughing when she found out the name of Elon’s AI.

    Imagine some Saudi prince launches an AI called Oink, and then sets up Oinkepedia

  Rather ironic given that wikipedia makes a massive portion of LLM training corpus

    Not to mention most Grokipedia pages are straight copied from Wikipedia!

      Didn’t there used to be conservapedia that was just Wikipedia but edited to match their imagined reality?

    Funny how the “voting irregularities” magically disappeared when he won.

      A thief doesn’t loudly announce that they just stole something.

    They forgot the quotes on “fact checked”

  So why didn’t Conservapedia take off? If it’s unbiased truth, no liberal agenda, it should have blown Wikipedia out of the water a decade ago. Funny that.
