Tech billionaire Elon Musk has launched a new online encyclopedia called “Grokipedia”, describing it as a direct alternative to Wikipedia. The platform, announced through Musk’s social media account on X, is designed to provide real-time, AI-enhanced information that evolves with ongoing events.
According to Musk, Grokipedia will integrate artificial intelligence to ensure more accurate and dynamic content. Unlike Wikipedia, which relies heavily on user edits and manual updates, Grokipedia will use Musk’s AI model “Grok” to verify and update information automatically.
The new platform aims to tackle what Musk calls “bias and inconsistency” in existing knowledge databases. “Information should reflect reality as it unfolds — not as someone edits it hours later,” Musk stated, emphasizing the need for a faster and smarter information system.
Grokipedia is expected to be integrated within X (formerly Twitter), giving users instant access to verified data while browsing or discussing trending topics. This move aligns with Musk’s broader plan to transform X into an “everything app,” combining communication, payments, and information services in one ecosystem.
Tech analysts believe the launch of Grokipedia could reshape how people consume and trust online information. While Wikipedia has dominated the space for over two decades, Musk’s entry may introduce stronger AI-driven verification and real-time responsiveness — features that could attract millions of users seeking reliable content.
However, critics have raised concerns about potential control and censorship, as Grokipedia’s data flow would be tied to Musk’s X platform. Digital policy experts warn that transparency in data sourcing will be essential for maintaining credibility.
The launch also adds to Musk’s growing list of tech ventures, including Tesla, SpaceX, Neuralink, and xAI. Each of these projects, Musk says, contributes to his vision of a more connected and intelligent digital future.
In another sign of technological growth, Pakistan has surpassed regional nations by developing over 1,000 mobile apps in various fields. This milestone reflects how emerging markets are rapidly catching up with global innovation trends an ecosystem where platforms like Grokipedia could play a crucial informational role.
With Grokipedia’s launch, Musk is once again challenging long-established digital norms, promising a smarter, faster, and more adaptive way to access the world’s knowledge.
