The challenging question is what problem is Grokipedia solving? Larry Sanger notes at the end of this article that most people are going to continue using LLMs to ask encyclopedic questions, and since the articles in Grokipedia are created by an LLM, why bother with it?

Grokipedia articles can be verified by humans.

What does "verified" mean? What qualifications do these people need to have? How are they vetted? Is the process transparent?

Those are great questions - https://x.com/lsanger/status/1972847461560635775 I doubt it will be transparent, but I don't think it matters too much. What matters is the quality of articles they produce.
