Key Takeaways:
xAI launched Grokipedia that promotes to be a Wikipedia that is fact checked and rewritten by Grok: "... it rewrites those pages, removing falsehoods, correcting half-truths, and adding crucial & missing context"
Grokipedia currently has almost 1m articles and is indexable on Google
As Brick and Jeffrey point out already over 900.000 pages are indexed on Google - some ranking already and are cited in LLM chats
It will be interesting to see how Google approaches this all AI generated site that at least is promoting facts from an own political view - as Buschner points out e.g.:
George Floyd: Grokipedia leads with: "American man with a lengthy criminal record including convictions for armed robbery, drug possession, and theft." Wikipedia leads with: "African-American man who was murdered by a white police officer in Minneapolis during an arrest."
Joe Biden: Grokipedia leads with age concerns, cognitive questions, and controversies. Wikipedia's leads with his career accomplishments, positions held, and legislative history.
Why is it relevant: in LLM/AI Chats Wikipedia is one of the most cited sources - Will Grokipedia be trusted by LLMs? Will it become another Wikipedia-like source that will get cited similarly?
SEO/GEO implications: Rehman proposes to go for backlinks from Grokipedia

As a first mover there might still be lots of opportunities. However, there is a chance that the site gets penalized and links will devalued
