Musk effectively copied over all of Wikipedia and had Grok go over it to give it a far right bias in its framing in articles to turn it into a propaganda tool. It's conservapedia 2.0 backed by the world's richest man.

still can't get over what we learned today that the actual story is elon musk just copied enough of wikipedia word-for-word for grokipedia to be useful but rewrote all articles related to him to be more favorable, leaving out facts he doesn't want people to see or talk about
I’ve never donated to Wikipedia before but I set up a small monthly donation as a fuck you to the world’s richest psychopath.
Elon Musk takes aim at Wikipedia
Musk has denounced Wikipedia as "Wokepedia" on X and urged people not to donate to the platform.

Republicans have studied all of the Democratic ecosystem's ideas and strategies. They've directly copied every major left institution and then honed their own ideas in key ways:
1) Republicans use their money efficiently. They build institutions rather than rent them.

At a major insurer years ago, we all had identical stripped-down versions of windows. On a departmental exchange day, I noticed the IT dept had regular installations. I slyly copied solitaire and minesweeper to a shared drive, then to every PC I used from then on. Tee-hee!

Just tried "Grokipedia" and the hype around it is insane
First of all, some articles are IDENTICALLY copied from Wikipedia (including some articles I wrote)
Second, some articles look like advertisements (Tesla Autopilot, Grok & others)
The sources reference pages written by the corporations

Toyotomi Hideyoshi from Warlord Games. I copied the colour scheme from the piece of artwork that clearly inspired the sculpt. I think it works well.

Two decades ago, Glasgow was branded the “murder capital of Europe.”
Today, homicides there are down by around two-thirds. Across Scotland they’re at their lowest, since records began.
That progress comes from the SNP’s public-health approach to violence, now copied across the UK and beyond.

i doubt any of this is going to work but this is a good case study in how the right floods the zone on a topic while the left often does a one and done hit and moves on. on other issues, this technique works very well and should be copied.

From Wikipedia's post about Grokipedia:
"Many articles are derived from Wikipedia articles, with some articles observed to be copied nearly verbatim"

You're focusing on the content, not the methods. They are separate things. The latter can be copied without immorality.

I don't even know you can take 'AI' claims at face value here, it looks like articles are just being copied verbatim.

My key said "DO NOT DUPLICATE" on it so when I took it to the guy to get it copied he asked if I wanted the copy to say "DO NOT DUPLICATE" too

So apparently some idiot decided that what Wikipedia really needed more of was Nazi-positive LLM output.
Had a look...
"Dholuo" - copied from WP.
"Dellys" - doesn't exist (!)
"Al-Busiri" - copied from WP, with two paragraphs added.
"Siwi language" - _not_ copied from WP, and a big mess...

Once a week, this tape would be copied, distributed physically via courier, and people trained to hear it would listen to it to find out where things had broken or could be improved.

That the system of transatlantic slavery was invented by the Portuguese. They invented the plantation and the triangle trade. They invented the modern idea of a slave society with a racialised underclass of slave people, as a reincarnation of Roman Imperialism. And everyone else just copied them.
