Grokipedia is significantly outpacing Wikipedia in growth rate. Last month’s growth for Grokipedia was 52.61%, compared to Wikipedia’s 4.77%, according to the latest figures. At the beginning of the year, Grokipedia reached 86% of the total number of articles in the English Wikipedia and continued to grow exponentially. As of January 11, 2026, the number of articles exceeded 6.09 million, and the number of approved Grok edits surpassed 128,137.
“Grokipedia.com will soon significantly surpass Wikipedia,” stated Elon Musk earlier this year.

Previously, Elon Musk launched an online encyclopedia called Grokipedia, which he claims is based on artificial intelligence and is intended to align more closely with his conservative political views than the leading alternative, Wikipedia.
Recent updates suggest Grokipedia’s article count now rivals closely with Wikipedia’s current total of around 6.6 million in English. Grokipedia’s AI integration reportedly streamlines editorial processes, impacting its unprecedented growth and user engagement positively.
Moreover, Grokipedia’s deployment of advanced machine learning algorithms tailors content delivery, presenting an innovative approach that contrasts sharply with Wikipedia’s community-based editing ethos. This strategic distinction has sparked debates regarding biases in AI-driven content versus user-generated information.
Musk’s vision for Grokipedia extends to areas like enhancing content accuracy and reducing misinformation, a prevalent issue across digital platforms. The technological strides in AI backing Grokipedia are expected to challenge conventional structures of online information dissemination, potentially reshaping consumer trust and industry standards.
