New Delhi, Oct 5 (NationPress) - Elon Musk, the CEO of Tesla and SpaceX, announced on Sunday that a preliminary beta version of Grokipedia, an xAI-driven rival to the knowledge platform Wikipedia, is set to debut in just two weeks.

Musk shared a retweet from an X user, @amXFreeze, who described Grokipedia as "the world's most extensive and precise knowledge resource, designed for both humans and AI, with unrestricted usage."

According to the tweet, "Grok leverages extensive inference computing to analyze sources such as Wikipedia pages and determine: What is true, partially true, false, or lacking?"

The platform aims to scrutinize resources like Wikipedia, identifying inaccuracies, rectifying misconceptions, and providing additional context in its entries.

The reason it will become a genuine knowledge source is that it is developed exclusively with the intention of uncovering the truth, steering clear of biases or hidden motives. Elon Musk is known for his commitment to excellence, always going to great lengths in his ventures.

Musk has been vocal about his discontent with Wikipedia's funding model and editorial stance. His initiative to utilize AI for truth-seeking has evoked varied responses on X, with some users welcoming a new contender, while others caution against potential biases in Grok's training data.

As Musk noted in earlier statements, Grokipedia is designed to be a "significant enhancement over Wikipedia" and a stride toward xAI's ambition of comprehending the universe.

On October 2, Musk became the first individual in history to achieve a net worth of $500 billion, with Oracle's Larry Ellison following at a considerable distance.

His AI firm, xAI, was valued at $75 billion as of July, with aspirations for a $200 billion valuation post-fundraising, although Musk clarified that the company was not in search of investment at that moment.
