Do you think Grok's proposed Grokpedia will succeed? Why or why not?

To be honest, I'm still reserved about this "Grokpedia" that Gork mentioned. He talks about creating a Wikipedia-like, but smarter, knowledge platform, which sounds cool. But the real questions are: how will it be done, and can it actually succeed?

First, people currently use search engines, Zhihu, and Baidu Baike for information, and their efficiency is already quite high. If Grokpedia just offers a different interface or adds some AI features, it will be hard to get people to change their old habits. Moreover, Wikipedia relies on voluntary editing from people worldwide, making it very "grassroots." If Grokpedia relies too heavily on AI to automatically generate content, the accuracy and credibility of the information might be compromised.

Then there's the "human" factor. Wikipedia succeeded because a large group of meticulous and dedicated people constantly correct typos, research facts, and cite sources. AI can write, but who will be responsible? If mistakes occur, whose responsibility will it be? If there isn't a mechanism to encourage people to contribute long-term, relying solely on Gork's grand vision won't get it far.

However, if Gork can truly integrate AI and human effort well—for example, AI quickly organizing knowledge, and then humans reviewing and supplementing it—perhaps a faster, more accurate, and easier-to-understand new type of encyclopedia could emerge. But that's not something that happens overnight; it requires real work, not just slogans.

So, for now, I think: the idea is good, but whether it can succeed depends on how it's executed, if people actually use it, and if they're willing to contribute to building it. It's too early to be optimistic.
