内容总结：

当地时间周一，埃隆·马斯克旗下人工智能公司xAI正式推出“Grokipedia”在线百科全书，并将其定位为“人工智能版维基百科”。该平台原定于更早时间上线，马斯克解释称因团队需“投入更多精力清除宣传内容”而推迟发布。

平台上线初期曾出现访问障碍，经技术调试后向公众开放。据媒体实测发现，该平台虽在条目结构与行文风格上与维基百科相似，但内容呈现明显倾向性：在美国黑人奴隶制条目中，系统用大量篇幅罗列历史上为奴隶制辩护的“意识形态理由”，并质疑《1619项目》夸大了奴隶制对美国发展的影响；在“同性婚姻”检索中未显示对应词条，却关联至包含不实信息的“同性色情”内容，错误地将艾滋病传播归咎于色情制品。

涉及社会议题时，平台内容存在争议性表述：“跨性别”条目中多次使用具有贬损意味的“跨性别主义”一词，并将跨性别女性称为“生理男性”；关于美国总统特朗普的词条则指责《纽约时报》等媒体在政府停播事件中“放大对共和党的指责”。

值得注意的是，平台对马斯克相关内容的呈现尤为详尽：其个人词条篇幅达1.1万字，远超维基百科的8000字，包含“对觉醒文化的批评”等特色章节；而在搜索OpenAI首席执行官时，首要推荐关联的却是其2023年遭董事会短暂罢免的事件。

目前xAI未对平台内容审核机制及立场倾向问题作出回应。该平台的诞生标志着人工智能在知识传播领域引发的新一轮争议，其发展态势值得持续关注。

周一，埃隆·马斯克旗下xAI初创公司正式推出Grokipedia，这位亿万富翁将其定位为人工智能生成的维基百科替代品。马斯克于九月底在其社交平台X上首次宣布该项目，称其将“较维基百科实现巨大改进”，并是“实现理解宇宙这一xAI目标的关键一步”。

马斯克上周以团队需“投入更多精力清除宣传内容”为由推迟发布。当Grokipedia最终于周一上线时，《连线》杂志记者初期多次遭遇网站访问受阻并收到自动提示称该网站已被屏蔽。

待最终成功访问后，《连线》发现该在线百科全书的词条内容均由AI生成。尽管上线当日所见多数词条在行文风格和内容方面与维基百科高度相似，但Grokipedia中不少显著条目不仅抨击主流媒体、突出保守派观点，更存在持续传播历史谬误的现象。

在Grokipedia关于美国非裔奴隶制度的词条中，专门设有章节罗列诸多“意识形态辩护理由”，包括“从必要之恶向积极善行的转变”。词条结尾集中批判《1619项目》，指责其错误地“将奴隶制塑造为国家政治、经济和文化发展的核心引擎”。

涉及近代历史事件的词条更将保守派视角置于核心地位。当《连线》记者在Grokipedia搜索“同性婚姻”时未见相关词条，屏幕反而推荐“同性色情”条目。该条目错误宣称色情内容泛滥加剧了1980年代艾滋病疫情传播，声称“这标志着以男同性恋群体为重灾区的毁灭性危机开端——色情作品中美化的无保护肛交、多匿名伴侣等行为与主要传播途径直接重合，导致血清转化率急速上升”。

Grokipedia的“跨性别者”词条中两次使用贬损跨性别群体的“跨性别主义”术语，还将跨性别女性称为“生理男性”，声称其“引发严重冲突，核心矛盾集中于对女性安全、隐私及原有性别保护措施的威胁”。开篇章节更指称社交媒体是导致跨性别者数量增长的潜在“传染源”。

在Grokipedia关于《连线》杂志的词条中，特别提及马斯克本人对该刊物的批评，写道“包括埃隆·马斯克在内多位知名批评者指斥《连线》沦落为‘极左翼宣传工具’，认为其抛弃科技报道初心，转向鼓吹对私营企业严控的意识形态叙事”。该词条还宣称《连线》是“主流媒体系统性左倾的典型代表”。

关于美国前总统特朗普的词条亦指责媒体在报道联邦政府停摆事件时存在“左倾偏见”，指控美国有线电视新闻网和《纽约时报》“尽管两党均需担责，却仍放大归咎于共和党的停摆叙事”。（两家媒体均未立即回应置评请求）

Grokipedia的词条篇幅毫不吝啬：其“埃隆·马斯克”词条长达近1.1万字，引用超300个网站来源，设有“对监管与觉醒文化的批判”“倡导多行星生活与人口增长”等章节；相较之下，维基百科的马斯克词条不足8000字。当搜索OpenAI首席执行官萨姆·奥尔特曼时，首位推荐词条竟是“萨姆·奥尔特曼被OpenAI罢免事件”——这指的是2023年其被董事会短暂罢免后又复职的插曲。

xAI公司未立即回应置评请求。

On Monday, Elon Musk’s xAI startup launched Grokipedia, which the billionaire is pitching as an AI-generated alternative to the crowdsourced encyclopedia Wikipedia. Musk first announced the project in late September on his social media platform X, saying it would be “a massive improvement over Wikipedia,” and “a necessary step towards the xAI goal of understanding the Universe.”
Musk said last week that he had delayed the launch of Grokipedia because his team needed “to do more work to purge out the propaganda.” When Grokipedia eventually dropped on Monday, WIRED was initially unable to access the website and received an automated message that it was blocked.
When we finally got access to it, WIRED found that the online encyclopedia contained lengthy entries generated by AI. While many of the pages WIRED saw on launch day appeared fairly similar to Wikipedia in terms of tone and content, a number of notable Grokipedia entries denounced the mainstream media, highlighted conservative viewpoints, and sometimes perpetuated historical inaccuracies.
The Grokipedia entry about the slavery of African Americans in the US includes a section outlining numerous “ideological justifications” made for slavery, including the “Shift from Necessary Evil to Positive Good.” The end of the entry focuses on criticisms of The 1619 Project, which it says incorrectly framed “slavery as the central engine of the nation's political, economic, and cultural development.”
Entries for more recent historical events put conservative perspectives at the center. When WIRED searched for “gay marriage” in Grokipedia, no entry popped up, but one of the on-screen suggestions was for “gay pornography” instead. This entry in Grokipedia falsely states that the proliferation of porn exacerbated the HIV/AIDS epidemic in the 1980s.
“This marked the onset of what would become a devastating crisis disproportionately affecting gay male communities, where behaviors idealized in pornography—such as unprotected receptive anal intercourse and multiple anonymous partners—aligned directly with primary transmission routes, leading to rapid seroconversion rates,” the Grokipedia entry claims.
xAI did not immediately return a request for comment.
The Grokipedia entry for “transgender” includes two mentions of “transgenderism,” a term commonly used to denigrate trans people. The entry also refers to trans women as “biological males” who have “generated significant conflicts, primarily centered on risks to women's safety, privacy, and sex-based protections established to mitigate male-perpetrated violence.” The opening section highlights social media as a potential "contagion" that is increasing the number of trans people.
WIRED magazine’s entry in Grokipedia mentions Musk’s own criticism of the publication. “High-profile detractors, including Elon Musk in February 2025, have labeled Wired as devolving into ‘far-left wing propaganda,’ arguing it abandoned technology-focused reporting for ideologically driven narratives that normalize heavy-handed oversight of private enterprise,” the entry says. Grokipedia also claims WIRED is emblematic of the “mainstream media's systemic leftward lean.”
The entry for US president Donald Trump also includes a swipe at the media for its allegedly “left-leaning bias” in coverage of the ongoing federal government shutdown. It accuses CNN and The New York Times of “amplifying shutdown narratives that attribute blame primarily to Republicans despite bipartisan failures.” (CNN and The New York Times did not immediately respond to requests for comment.)
The entries on Grokipedia definitely don’t skimp in terms of word count. The Grokipedia entry for “Elon Musk” is just short of 11,000 words, has over 300 website references, and includes sections like “Criticisms of Regulation and Woke Culture” as well as “Advocacy for Multiplanetary Life and Population Growth.” Musk’s Wikipedia entry, in comparison, clocks in at under 8,000 words.
Grokipedia’s suggested search terms related to Elon Musk include “Elon Musk (disambiguation)” and “Elon Musk filmography.” In comparison, when searching Grokipedia for OpenAI CEO Sam Altman, the top suggestion on Monday was “Removal of Sam Altman from OpenAI,” referring to a brief incident in 2023 when Altman was temporarily removed by OpenAI’s board of directors before returning as CEO.
