I hadn’t heard of Grokipedia so based on the positive comments in this thread, I thought I’d try it out – only to discover that its search feature sucks.

I’ve just finished watching a HBO TV show on Blu-Ray called “The Night of” so I tried searching for it on Grokipedia. It failed to find an article about the TV series in the first 60 search results (regardless of whether I used double quotes or appended the words “TV” or “series”). After multiple attempts, I gave up.

On the other hand, when I typed the three words into Wikipedia’s search, the TV show was the second search result.

Still in beta. It's apparently going to be called 'Encyclopedia Galactica' when released.

It's so much better and worse than Wikipedia at the same time.

Wouldn't touch that piece of shit if you paid me.

It's not that it doesn't have potential. But I hope the other players take up the mantle and auto-generate alternatives.

The stench of Mr Elon Musk is just too strong with Grokipedia (scrape that, bitch)
