Grokipedia (https://grokipedia.com/) represents the most promising attempt in ages to build a genuinely bias-free online encyclopedia.
Ironically, trying it fairly requires you to first suspend your own biases regarding its owner.

"Unlike Wikipedia, Grokipedia centralizes its editing process. Users can submit suggested edits to Grokipedia, but instead of assigning a group of volunteer community editors to decide on the edits, xAI, Musk’s artificial intelligence company, controls whether or not a certain edit is approved and implemented on the website."
So you could as well call it "Muskipedia"

If this looks like a "genuinely bias-free" page to you, I don't know what to tell you.
I started reading the Grokipedia page on the "Russian invasion of Ukraine". Immediately after the abstract, it starts talking about the "9th century Kyivan Rus" which seems like irrelevant information to a conflict over a millenia later, but then you realize it's exact same thing that Putin started with in his interview with Tucker Carlson to push the 'Ukraine isn't a real country' narrative.
can you provide a few examples where grokipedia outshines wikipedia?
Are you joking?

Genuinely bias-free my ass.
