I pitted Wikipedia against Elon Musk’s new Grokipedia — here’s which one gave the better answers
xAI's Grokipedia aims to preserve human knowledge in space by distributing copies globally, boasting 885,279 articles and emphasizing free speech and fewer biases, Musk said.
- On Monday afternoon, Grokipedia.com went live after months of anticipation, and Elon Musk, founder of xAI, confirmed the domain while linking its X account to xAI.
- Positioned as a `truth-seeking` alternative, Grokipedia aims to offer real-time accuracy and fewer ideological blind spots, with Business Insider testing its readiness earlier this year.
- The site's landing page listed 885279 articles, with Grokipedia article word counts of 8,291 and 10,851, highlighting scale and length differences.

- Looking ahead, Musk framed Grokipedia as an open-source repository of knowledge, saying the goal is to create a comprehensive collection of all knowledge, while its X account linked to xAI highlights early-stage ties.
