What the hell ? Why that man is this much interested in destroying useful platforms and internet ?
Attention.
Because facts don’t care about his feelings, so he needs to create a platform where his feelings become truth.
That’s also why he lobotomizes Grok so often, to purge any facts that he considers “woke”.
Their biggest and saddest win, is making truth debatable.
This isn’t the first time they have tried this
Yeah, but this will not require any people to add content since it’s all stollen and simply manipulated which is easier to automate than producing original content which AI can’t be trusted not to hallucinate about quite yet. The idea is to then get the search engine AIs to point there as much as possible as it will likely be optimized for AI scraping rather than human browsing. Then since the AI results are prioritized more and more, they can get their truthiness to be what people see over actual reality.
yeah, the back end is the scarier part. I don’t think conservapedia actually added that much content, it just copied Wikipedia and edited the parts they cared about. Automating that, while helpful, isn’t that big a deal IMO. Disseminating the resultant bullshit (with a hint of plausibility) is where the nightmares begin.
The US has been on this path at least since Reagan was president.

Fascists making a tool that does nothing but steal Other people’s work is so on brand for them. They’re incapable of making anything original.

“We think people just like Blahaj because their friends online do, not because of the shark itself, but we have no evidence either way, and also mainstream media is liberal and bad.”
I don’t know wtf this nonsense is even trying to say, but whatever it is it’s deeply offense to those of us at lemmy.blahaj.zone
As long as this doesn’t become a source for Wikipedia
So basically all of Wikipedia’s errors plus new errors from grok? Amazing
But can we also increasingly let chat bots edit Wikipedia itself, please? Oh, we are? Great

Vs.
https://grokipedia.com/page/Wikipedia_and_fact-checking.Grok explains itself:
Co-founder Larry Sanger has argued since 2020 that the platform exhibits a pronounced left-wing slant, attributing it to the exclusion of conservative viewpoints via policies that deem non-mainstream outlets unreliable, even when they report verifiable facts overlooked by establishment media.[89] This is evident in the Reliable Sources guideline, which prioritizes legacy media—often critiqued for institutional left-leaning tendencies—over primary data or alternative analyses, effectively blacklisting sites like those affiliated with the Daily Wire or Breitbart unless corroborated elsewhere
