Elon Musk’s Grokipedia, an AI-driven encyclopedia, has taken on its rival Wikipedia. <\/p>\n<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n

Elon Musk and his xAI company are once again making the headlines for worrying reasons. The startup has developed Grokipedia (AI version of Wikipedia) which is based on the Grok AI model. We have come to a point where people heavily rely on AI tools for information but now we have a situation where one AI is quoting another AI which may or may not have the right and accurate content. ChatGPT and other popular AI models are quoting Grokipedia content to the users and researchers are not comfortable with how this could turn out in the end.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Grok has not covered itself in glory since its release in the market, including the controversial nudify version of real photos that got the AI model banned in a few countries. Grokipedia is cut from the same AI cloth and having the information delivered in the open to the public raises misinformation concerns.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Grokipedia Content On AI: What The Data Says\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n

The report from a firm called Ahrefs recently claims Grokipedia has been quoted in over 263,000 responses on ChatGPT where the xAI model was the source of the information gathered. In comparison, Wikipedia was cited 2.9 million times in responses which shows the gulf between the two \u2018pedias\u2019 but also tells you how quickly Grok has climbed up the AI model ladder.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

The other worrying part is that ChatGPT seems to be relying on Grokipedia for its responses. And going by the track record of Musk\u2019s AI platform, that will not be comforting to millions. It is not like Grokipedia is not showing up on other AI models like Google\u2019s AI overviews but ChatGPT seems to be offering its responses more prominents, as mentioned by multiple research data.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

It is easy to say that Grokipedia competes with Wikipedia but the latter has human moderators while the former relies on content edited and generated by the xAI Grok model. And unlike regular content platforms, AI models can be trained based on the needs and tricked into serving harmful or inaccurate information that can eventually become a problem when acted upon by people.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Most AI models serving the audience come with a disclaimer which says they can make mistakes, so there is no harm in taking Grokipedia in the same light and look to minimise its impact or usage for vital information. <\/span><\/p>\n
