If you only eat one bagel today, this is the bagel.
Summary
Elon Musk's xAI has launched Grokipedia, a Wikipedia-like online encyclopedia that features AI-cloned content from Wikipedia. The site has a basic design similar to Wikipedia with search bars and entry formatting, but currently lacks user editing capabilities and photos. While Musk promised it would be a 'massive improvement' over Wikipedia, initial observations show it primarily adapts existing Wikipedia content rather than offering significant enhancements.
