Elon Musk Launches Grokipedia to Compete with Wikipedia and Promote His Views

TL;DR
Elon Musk has launched Grokipedia, an AI-based online encyclopedia that aligns more with rightwing perspectives and is fact-checked by Musk's AI chatbot Grok. The platform lacks human editors and has been criticized for promoting conservative viewpoints and spreading misinformation, such as downplaying the January 6 Capitol riot and spreading false claims about the AIDS epidemic.
