An early beta version of Grokipedia, created by billionaire Elon Musk’s company xAI, which is responsible for the development of Grok AI, will be released in October. Musk announced this on the social network X, "Komersant Ukrainian" reports.
“An early beta version of Grokipedia version 0.1 will be published in 2 weeks,” he wrote.
The initiative to create an analog of Wikipedia arose after the encyclopedia was criticized for restricting the use of a number of resources as a factual basis for articles, including the Republican media.
American investor David Sachs noted that there is a market opportunity for a solution that can “rewrite Wikipedia, taking into account all the excluded sources.”
In response to these comments, Musk announced that xAI is working on creating such an encyclopedia. According to him, there will be no restrictions or censorship.
The project will be implemented “for the sake of all the knowledge of mankind” and its results will be published in the public domain, the billionaire added.
