Elon Musk launched Grokipedia
AI-powered alternative to Wikipedia. Created by Musk's AI company xAI, Grokipedia aims to provide "the truth, the whole truth, and nothing but the truth,"
Elon Musk launched Grokipedia on October 27, 2025, as an AI-powered alternative to Wikipedia. Created by Musk's AI company xAI, Grokipedia aims to provide "the truth, the whole truth, and nothing but the truth," addressing what Musk sees as liberal or "woke" bias in Wikipedia. The platform contains nearly 900,000 articles, much fewer than Wikipedia's over 7 million, and its content is generated largely by AI with some adaptations from Wikipedia entries.
Grokingredient to Grokipedia is Musk's AI chatbot Grok, which helps curate and fact-check the encyclopedia entries. The design is minimalist with a search bar, resembling Wikipedia in format but focusing on a more right-leaning, conservative perspective. Critics have noted that some Grokipedia entries reflect Musk's political views and sometimes contain inaccuracies or controversial assertions, including critical takes on mainstream media and social issues. Musk has described Grokipedia as part of a broader digital media ecosystem aligned with his personal beliefs, aiming also to preserve this knowledge for the future by sending copies to the Moon and Mars.
While Wikipedia is crowd-sourced and volunteer-edited, the exact human involvement in Grokipedia's generation remains unclear, with user feedback encouraged to spot inaccuracies. The launch follows Musk's accusations of propaganda and bias on Wikipedia, and Grokipedia represents his effort to establish an alternative knowledge base reflecting his worldview
