Summary
Grokipedia is a proposed concept for an AI-powered knowledge base, envisioned as a comprehensive, AI-curated encyclopedia. The idea emerged during an interview on the All-In Podcast, where Elon Musk discussed the future development of his AI venture, xAI. He detailed plans for the next generation of Grok, which will be trained on extensive synthetic data to refine and expand global knowledge, a process powered by the Colossus supercomputer currently under construction in Memphis.
