Wikipedia in danger? Grokipedia, Elon Musk's AI Encyclopedia, is Online

Elon Musk launches Grokipedia: an AI-generated encyclopedia to challenge Wikipedia and disrupt access to information. This bold project, combined with the billionaire’s influence, could redraw the boundaries of knowledge and especially financial markets. Analysis of an innovation with multiple repercussions.

Grokipedia: Elon Musk’s AI-generated encyclopedia is online

Elon Musk officially launched Grokipedia on October 27, 2025, an online encyclopedia entirely generated by artificial intelligence. Developed by xAI, the platform presents itself as an alternative to Wikipedia, with nearly 900,000 articles available from its launch. Despite initial technical issues, the site is now accessible and promises a revolution in access to information.

To this end, Grokipedia uses the Grok AI, a chatbot trained on massive data to produce content in real time. Elon Musk announced that a version 1.0, “ten times better” than the current version, will be deployed soon. This project fits within his recurring criticism of Wikipedia, which he accuses of bias and lack of neutrality.

The goal is clear: to offer a more objective source of information, without human bias. Yet, some experts question whether an AI can guarantee absolute neutrality, especially when training data may itself be biased.

Wikipedia VS Grokipedia: who will win the battle of truth?

Elon Musk claims that Grokipedia embodies “the truth, the whole truth, nothing but the truth”. A statement that contrasts with his repeated criticisms of Wikipedia, judged too influenced by activists. But is this promise of neutrality realistic?

Figures like Alexander Dugin, Russian ideologue, have praised Grokipedia’s apparent neutrality, believing that articles about him are more balanced there. In contrast, media like The Washington Post highlight that the platform could favor far-right discourse, with content already criticized for its political orientation.

The debate is persistent: can an AI-generated encyclopedia truly escape bias? Algorithms, while automated, depend on the data that feeds them. Wikipedia, despite its flaws, relies on a global community of contributors, which still gives it a certain resilience against manipulations.

Grokipedia and Dogecoin: a potential impact on Musk’s favorite crypto?

Elon Musk is known for his influence on cryptos, notably Dogecoin. Every announcement or project related to this memecoin has historically caused fluctuations in its price. Therefore, Musk’s launch of Grokipedia could become a new lever for DOGE? So far, no significant increase in Dogecoin has been observed since Grokipedia’s launch.

However, speculations are numerous. If the platform includes positive references to Dogecoin, it could enhance its visibility and, consequently, its attractiveness to crypto investors.

Crypto market observers are closely monitoring Grokipedia’s evolution. Mass adoption could create a “Musk effect”, boosting Dogecoin as in the past. Conversely, a relative failure of the project would limit its impact on financial markets.

Just a few months after Musk’s AI generating hateful discourse, the Tesla boss unveils a new innovation, Grokipedia. Between algorithmic neutrality and influence on cryptocurrencies, this project raises fundamental questions. One thing is certain: AI and crypto will continue to shape our future. But who will decide the truth in the digital age?
