Your search kind of is telling you why the wikipedia page is ranked below the grokipedia one and it's because the word parametric doesn't show up. While sometimes dropping words is okay in search (e.g. the word the), it's probably less okay to drop the word parameteric.
The difference in results everyone is experiencing is probably in part due to various knobs like how much to penalize dropping terms.
For one more time, adding "-ai" only means that you won't be getting any results that contain the word "ai". Just like every search of yours means that the results should contain your exact words whenever possible, "-" means what words the result shouldn't.
There are dozens more "wildcards" in searching algorithms that you are not aware of. And with people not understanding what -,"",/,\,*,% and other wildcards mean, it's for their best that they don't because then you see some tiktokers making stuff up, like "-ai".
No matter what you do, there is no direct way to "stop" ai written articles from appearing in your search. Even AI features of the search engine can only be turned off from the settings or relevant pop-ups, not from a search query.
While yes, search operators have always worked that way in the past. The fact that fake Wikipedia doesn't show up at all is what amuses me. I went multiple 'pages' deep in that search and it was not a result anywhere. I even tried other physics based equation searches (most of them spelled incorrectly because I am not very smart) and if -ai was in the query, grok was nowhere to be found. Without it, top 5 results nearly every time.
I just googled the same thing and got
1. Wikipedia
2. grokipedia
3. googles ai overview (this used wikipedia, Utah State University, and grok as sources)
really scary that even the Googles AI overview that gives sources is claiming another AI as a source
Using "sears haack body parametric equation" made Grokipedia come up first, but just using "sears haack" showed me Wikipedia first.
The Wikipedia article is named Sears-Haack Body so I'm guessing that adding a bunch of extra information makes it easier for the AI one to show up first in the algorithm.
It is AI driven wiki pages that will automatically generate if anyone requests the page. Remember, AI hallucinations are extremely common, and there is no peer review.
it's too late for those appeals. I'm reading posts like "I asked ChatGPT..." on here almost daily. people will literally argue with you based on some LLM output and will get angry if you imply that the LLM may be wrong.
What’s worse are the posts that people have copied from ChatGPT and tried to pass off as their own. It’s usually obvious because they keep some of the formatting in tact, but they also sound like idiots in the comments, but write like geniuses in the post.
Or "I asked ChatGPT.and it said ...", if I wanted it's opinion I could just fucking ask it myself, some people genuinely think they're the only ones with access or something lmao.
The hilarious thing is that you can make chatgpt say whatever you want by simply phrasing your question in a certain way. Because at least whenever I'm using it it almost never says "no", which is also a big problem.
Considering an ai "hallucination" just means the outputs are clearly incorrect but are still using the same processes as any other output, we can't really trust any data that talks says how many hallucinations there are or not.
In turn, something like Grokipedia can't be trusted because unless someone is verifying, anything can factually incorrect. Problem is to someone knowledgeable on the pages topic it will sound confidently correct.
That sounds funny but doesn't seem like it actually does that. I searched for some nonsense terms, "halfwaste", "iconate" & "brieftangle" and it just said no results.
I feel like it must have a master list (maybe just copying wikipedia) of terms it thinks are encyclopedia worthy. It's hard to find a real term it doesn't have a page for already to test this though. Each page shows when Grok last updated it, so presumably if you get it to generate a new page it'll say 'today' or something.
Yep. A tweet from Musk was shared around a few days ago. The site was going to be "more complete" and "faster" by having Grok do the articles when requested instead of having human volunteers. A mix of generative AI and a wiki. whereas a normal Wiki has volunteers doing articles based on requests and interest. Musk seems to constantly promise the moon and blow up on launch pad.
It was a claim that Grok would make articles as users requested them. While Grok may have made articles for other things as users requested them, it didn't even try for made-up terms, implying it is not as limitless as promised. Therefore, there must be some master list or code that limits it (probably to avoid trolls) or it doesn't actually respond to users.
Side note its also biased towards Republican views, for example it will make sure that readers know that George Floyd was in fact stealing things from a gas station and minimize the fact that a trained police officer spent 8 entire minutes kneeling on his neck very obviously chocking him to death
(Idk if it was actually 8 minutes BUT I do know that it was an extended period of time that to anyone with 2 brain cells knocking against each other is far too long of a time to be doing such)
Oh, this is fantastic. It is absolutely easier to make simple requests for info than it is to generate the info. I wonder at what point it could no longer keep up and end up crashing out.
It is saving the pages when they are made. It is just making new pages under certain circumstances that the general public doesn't really know about. It seems to go: user makes request >if applicable page already exists, show that >if no page exists, check with some system general users don't know about, and possibly generate a new page.
It's another wet dream of the south-african turned american toddler who likes big rockets and claiming he's not making nazis salutes when raising his right arm straight at 45 degrees. 😙
If not, it's a copy of wikipedia for the most part. Grok is able to prune a sentence here and there, but it just copies text from wikipedia. Unless it is something Musk cares about, like his own image, which is why his entry in Grokipedia and Wikipedia are going to be different, by a lot. Musk's "pedia" glazes him, while wiki just reports on him with sources.
"parameter" and "parametrically" appears 4 times on the Grokopedia entry, and 0 times on Wikipedia. "equation" appears 9 times on the Grokopedia entry, and 2 times on Wikipedia.
Yes, if you add more words to your search that show up more frequently on one site, that site will be higher in your search results.
Yeah, that'd comport with my finding no grokipedia at all in at least 50 results from my Canadian IP. Americans are getting propagandized left and right.
Weird, I tried searching for the same thing as OP and got the same result, and I've never even seen gronk show up in my results before this. I tried some other random searches including searching for other equations and no gronk. Very strange.
This is factually untrue. Server farms are actually only a small % of total operational costs for Wikimedia foundation, they refuse to implement ads (so foregoing ad money), fight censorship worldwide (need tons of legal teams worldwide for that), fight misinformation, teams to constantly fact-check info, cybersecurity, etc.
Their only source of income is literally only donations, their yearly expenditure is a couple hundred million almost. The fact that they got barely 1-2 years worth of reserve is irrelevant, thats just responsible NGO planning.
Because most of their costs aren’t fundamental for the existence of Wikipedia and most of the work is done by volunteers, their other expenses in donations and activism is irrelevant.
Doesn't mean it's going anywhere when they're receiving $208 million/year and spending $190 million, when only $3.5 million is critical infrastructure.
its wikipedia. its a very good moral company that people get good use out of and tries their best to actually remain usable instead of maximising profits. you should donate to them if you can spare the money since they deserve it
At least in mobile chrome there’s three dots on it that I can click which gives me an option to report it and tell them it’s an unreliable source under “other”
It doesnt accept money for position in the actual search results. Yes, you can have paid/sponsored results but those are clearly labeled. Sponsored results are 100% coming to AI chatbots. It's being worked on now. Thats how they'll make money. They are losing money right now.
Oh, no doubt. I'm just saying that I have zero search history or behavior that would prioritize this result for me, so OP's point is valid. It's prioritized in my results over sites I actually use often, like Wikipedia.
It was in my results on ddg when searching "sears haack body parametric equation" (europe but not uk)
I reported it as ai and blocked now though, but idk if reporting as ai will do jack shit since ddg's ai settings apparently only apply on images and not websites
well if you dont like it so much dont post stuff like this, half of us havent even heard of it, but now here i go to check what it is and see if i like it or not.
Never seen grokipedia before, I use ecosia on my Phone and while searching for sears-haak body 4 pages no grok, the results only get more scientific witb each Page, only researchgate links.
Thanks for assuring my decision to fuck off from Google
OP, I'm guessing that Wikipedia is being ranked lower since you searched for the word parametric which was dropped. Your search even says that Wikipedia does not contain that term.
There are better alternatives out there (DuckDuckGo).
Some even let you completely block sites from your results so that you never see those sites again, and prioritize those that you do want to see more often (Kagi).
Tech oligarchs scratching each others backs. Google and Musk both want wikipedia and other non-profits to die. Nobody who actually cares about anything important would purposely choose AI slop over wikipedia. It shows up in the search results because google wants it to.
I guess you must use Twitter a lot or something lol...never heard of it, and just adding "wiki" to anything almost always brings up Wikipedia, or any other non-fascist organization.
Probably because google is training their AI with it over wikipedia.
Why?
It actually has more information on the page than wikipedia. Wikipedia's power was in the linked data, but due to more recent web shenanigaree, old websites are being edited, taken down, articles are being modified.
The only way to properly capture this data is with a snapshot (and even those are being taken down from time to time at the request of global governments - ahem...WTF - so the best training data is the stuff that is all in the same spot. Instead of searching through links and training off of conflicting data, they can go to one place.
Simply put, Grokipedia is better for AI training and LLMs so search engines are boosting it in order to "cheat" / reduce overhead.
Never heard of Grokipedia but it is the 6th down for me searching for "sears haack body parametric equation." I don't use Chrome though.

Norway, what you doing

You are right, if I remove that word Groki and Wiki swap places for me.
Same result from central US. Funnily enough that waste of electrons site doesn't show up, at all, if you add -ai to your search.
I've become so accustomed to adding that to every search I had to make a conscious decision to not add it to this one to test.
I add 'fuck' to my searches on Google and you don't see the ai slop answer.
I'm so happy my speech patterns make me immune to internet STDs
For one more time, adding "-ai" only means that you won't be getting any results that contain the word "ai". Just like every search of yours means that the results should contain your exact words whenever possible, "-" means what words the result shouldn't.

"if you add -ai to your search."
oh my sweet summer child.
I'm curious why I'm a sweet summer child in this case?
I get the same with Firefox and google, in Argentina.
naur way
No need or real sense in using Google anymore in 2025, mate, get away!
Firefox, Germany, the same.
But it says "About featured snippets" at the bottom. Since the word parametric isn't in the Wikipedia article, this might be the reason.
Both Firefox and Chrome have the wikipedia page at the top for me
Firefox doesn't have it's own search engine and uses google by default, although it's really easy to change. This is just a google thing AFAIK.
Chrome in USA for me has grokipedia on top. This is the end of knowledge lol
Grokipedia is the first result in Chrome and Firefox for me, but the fourth in Edge.
It's Elon Musks right-wing A.I. competition to Wikipedia. It supposedly relies on "alternative facts."
For those who don’t speak fascist, “alternative facts” directly translates to “lies”.
Commonly known as made up shit.
thanks for summing up why grokipedia exists
It also says that Elon Musk is more athletic than Lebron James.
2nd for me:

I use Firefox.
On Google the first hit for "sears haack body parametric equation" was Grokipedia.
On Duckduckgo the first hit for "sears haack body parametric equation" was Wikipedia. Grokipedia was the fifth link for me.
That's weird because according to OP's picture, the Wikipedia entry doesn't contain "parametric" which is why it's not first
I just googled the same thing and got 1. Wikipedia 2. grokipedia 3. googles ai overview (this used wikipedia, Utah State University, and grok as sources)
really scary that even the Googles AI overview that gives sources is claiming another AI as a source

It was also indexed November 2023? Didn’t that garbage Wikipedia knock off start this year?
Edit: Running on Safari, iOS.
Wtf is a grokipedia I've never even heard of it lmao, let alone pop into search results.
It is AI driven wiki pages that will automatically generate if anyone requests the page. Remember, AI hallucinations are extremely common, and there is no peer review.
Just to put things into perspective, 25% of all GPT5 answers have hallucinations.
Anyone who uses any LLM for anything factual is a complete idiot.
it's too late for those appeals. I'm reading posts like "I asked ChatGPT..." on here almost daily. people will literally argue with you based on some LLM output and will get angry if you imply that the LLM may be wrong.
What’s worse are the posts that people have copied from ChatGPT and tried to pass off as their own. It’s usually obvious because they keep some of the formatting in tact, but they also sound like idiots in the comments, but write like geniuses in the post.

Surely the de-woked Mecha Hitler is trustworthy. . .
/s
Why would you call something named after Hitler trustworthy? Really bad of you to use the /serious tag for such comments.
I can’t tell if this is satire or not
If it were serious I'd have tagged it as such!
/s
base 10
That’s crazy high! Do you have a source for that?
Considering an ai "hallucination" just means the outputs are clearly incorrect but are still using the same processes as any other output, we can't really trust any data that talks says how many hallucinations there are or not.
In turn, something like Grokipedia can't be trusted because unless someone is verifying, anything can factually incorrect. Problem is to someone knowledgeable on the pages topic it will sound confidently correct.
Yeah, CoPilot says that figure when you ask it (/s)
Don't have it on hand now. IIRC I saw an article on the Better Offline subreddit.
A quick search now gives the figure 10% hallucinations, which is better but still not anything even remotely trustworthy.
The 10% hallucinations figure could be a hallucination.
A lie told once remains a lie, but a lie told a thousand times becomes the truth 😅😅
That low?
I...... Seriously??? That sounds horrendous
That sounds funny but doesn't seem like it actually does that. I searched for some nonsense terms, "halfwaste", "iconate" & "brieftangle" and it just said no results.
Well if it is working as intended of course it would say no results if you're making up terms
Er, yes. So this disproves it will hallucinate a page about something just because a user requests it.
I assumed they meant the case that when you ask AI about real stuff it can spout bullshit?
So it doesn't actually do what Musk claims it does? Big shocker. I do wonder how it actually decides to generate new pages then.
I feel like it must have a master list (maybe just copying wikipedia) of terms it thinks are encyclopedia worthy. It's hard to find a real term it doesn't have a page for already to test this though. Each page shows when Grok last updated it, so presumably if you get it to generate a new page it'll say 'today' or something.
Was it ever claimed that it would generate articles about anything using AI though?
Yep. A tweet from Musk was shared around a few days ago. The site was going to be "more complete" and "faster" by having Grok do the articles when requested instead of having human volunteers. A mix of generative AI and a wiki. whereas a normal Wiki has volunteers doing articles based on requests and interest. Musk seems to constantly promise the moon and blow up on launch pad.
Bro, how is that a promise that the thing would generate articles on made up, nonsense terms
It was a claim that Grok would make articles as users requested them. While Grok may have made articles for other things as users requested them, it didn't even try for made-up terms, implying it is not as limitless as promised. Therefore, there must be some master list or code that limits it (probably to avoid trolls) or it doesn't actually respond to users.

It seems to go: user makes request >if applicable page already exists, show that >if no page exists, check with some system general users don't know about, and possibly generate a new page.
If this is accurate, than the ratio of "work" done between the user and AI is, at a minimum, 1:3. A coordinated effort could take it down.
All it really has to do is go copy the Wikipedia page though lol
And it will cause issues with people ending up on it and having problems.
It's Wikipedia for "alternative facts"
More like wikipedia for Nazis
No that's conservapedia (Which also seems to be wikipedia for young earth creationists, from the morbid curiosity examination i did of the site)
Grokpedia uses conservapedia for its data.
It's Wikipedia for people that don't like that reality contradicts conservative beliefs
It's another wet dream of the south-african turned american toddler who likes big rockets and claiming he's not making nazis salutes when raising his right arm straight at 45 degrees. 😙

It was created by Elon Musk because he believes Wikipedia is too “woke”.

So information that is biased to please him and promote his views.

This post will drive more traffic to grokipedia…lol
Any normal person will leave quite quickly though
do you feel as though you're surrounded by normal people?
I literally never heard of it until just now. Now I want to see all the stuff it gets wrong.
Doesn't show up on mine at all lol
For me it goes Wikipedia, Reddit, NASA, Pinterest, then grokopedia or whatever.
I've never used grok. So maybe it's just your algorithm.
What if you search: "sears haack body parametric equation"
I don't use grok
For me Grokipedia is first too, including in private browsing. Wikipedia is third.
I don't even use Twitter.
It’s because there is no “parametric” in the Wikipedia article
"parameter" and "parametrically" appears 4 times on the Grokopedia entry, and 0 times on Wikipedia. "equation" appears 9 times on the Grokopedia entry, and 2 times on Wikipedia.
Yes, if you add more words to your search that show up more frequently on one site, that site will be higher in your search results.
Wikipedia shows up first for me.
When I change my VPN to USA, Grok shows up first. Ew.
Yeah, that'd comport with my finding no grokipedia at all in at least 50 results from my Canadian IP. Americans are getting propagandized left and right.
Yep and it’s not the first time I’ve seen this sort of thing using a VPN. It’s messed up
That query, no quotation marks (with quotation marks there are no results except this thread). Not even on the first page for me.
And it goes on. I went down to 50 before I stopped counting and didn't see Grokipedia once
I'm in Canada. Maybe Americans are being fed propaganda by Google intentionally
Edit: I tried again in a different browser on a computer instead of my phone in private browsing and had the same result. No grokipedia

not for me
Must not be in America. When I use a VPN to USA ip it shows up first.
I’m in America and Wikipedia is still the first result for me.
many people aren't
Grok is 4th for me, I never even heard of it before today.

My first three results when I search that.
For me on chrome, Wikipedia is first and grokpedia is second
I'm in the UK and there's no grok on my front page. In fact, the only thing mentioning it is a link to this thread!
Its my first result and I have never used Grok and haven't used twitter in a decade.
I've never opened grok, Twitter or this random grokpedia. I use Wikipedia regularly. I'm still seeing the same order as op
Weird, I tried searching for the same thing as OP and got the same result, and I've never even seen gronk show up in my results before this. I tried some other random searches including searching for other equations and no gronk. Very strange.
Donate to wikipedia, otherwise you will have to get your information on grokipedia
Wikipedia received enough money in 2024 alone to keep their servers running for 60 years, they’re fine really.
This is factually untrue. Server farms are actually only a small % of total operational costs for Wikimedia foundation, they refuse to implement ads (so foregoing ad money), fight censorship worldwide (need tons of legal teams worldwide for that), fight misinformation, teams to constantly fact-check info, cybersecurity, etc.
Their only source of income is literally only donations, their yearly expenditure is a couple hundred million almost. The fact that they got barely 1-2 years worth of reserve is irrelevant, thats just responsible NGO planning.
its expensive to keep things free
Their servers arent their only cost. Why make such a misleading comment.
Because most of their costs aren’t fundamental for the existence of Wikipedia and most of the work is done by volunteers, their other expenses in donations and activism is irrelevant.
Most of the work is done by volunteers. Most is not all.
Any work done by non volunteers need to be paid.
They have expenses besides servers.
Doesn't mean it's going anywhere when they're receiving $208 million/year and spending $190 million, when only $3.5 million is critical infrastructure.
its wikipedia. its a very good moral company that people get good use out of and tries their best to actually remain usable instead of maximising profits. you should donate to them if you can spare the money since they deserve it
what the everloving fuck is grokipedia
Another attempt at a Conservapedia website
This time with Grok-AI doing dumb shit
Wikipedia but churned through nazi ai to remove 'woke'
Grokipedia is a website where Grok rewrote Wikipedia. Honestly, it is not all that different than Wikipedia on the vast majority of pages.
At least in mobile chrome there’s three dots on it that I can click which gives me an option to report it and tell them it’s an unreliable source under “other”
Sometimes I wonder why the billion dollar corporation relies on us to keep it in check though... Especially in a world after Cambridge analytica
It's search engine optimised, the word "parametric" just isn't in the body of the Wiki article.
So, grokipedia appears more relevant to the search algo, but to a human looking for reliable information...
had to scroll way too far for someone to bring up the "Missing: parametric" under the wikipedia link
Can someone make a grokipedia gone plug-in for browser
You realise google personalizes results for you?
Its my top result and I don't even have a twitter/x account.
Top result for what query tho? Never hear dog grokipedia before
Given my long history of web usage, Musk's paying a shit-ton to manipulate Grokipedia's position is infinitely more likely than "personalisation".
It also accepts money to put results at the top and Musk's only achievements in life are those he paid for
They are called ads. This screen shot is not an ad.
Touché
It doesnt accept money for position in the actual search results. Yes, you can have paid/sponsored results but those are clearly labeled. Sponsored results are 100% coming to AI chatbots. It's being worked on now. Thats how they'll make money. They are losing money right now.
Google also priotizes pages using google adsense
Congrats, you’re both right!
It's also my top result in Chrome and I don't have X and never heard of Grokipedia until just now. And I use Wikipedia like daily.
Doesn't alter the fact that Google personalizes results for you. But top result for what query?
Oh, no doubt. I'm just saying that I have zero search history or behavior that would prioritize this result for me, so OP's point is valid. It's prioritized in my results over sites I actually use often, like Wikipedia.
Not on either google or duckduckgo for me (in the UK)
It was in my results on ddg when searching "sears haack body parametric equation" (europe but not uk)
I reported it as ai and blocked now though, but idk if reporting as ai will do jack shit since ddg's ai settings apparently only apply on images and not websites
I Google stuff all the time and I've never been suggested grokopedia. I didn't even know it was a thing until about 10 seconds ago
You must be using it because your algorithm is suggesting it
Grokipedia was 4th in my search results for "Sears-Haack body".
It's now blocked.
Thanks for alerting me to the problem.
Not for duckduck go.
Isnt that the mechahitler search engine?
Its not like google has a tendency to sell search result positions
don't use google
What with these fake wikipedias topping lately on Google searches
Because $$$
watch Hank Green video about this, quite interesting.
Using Google in 2025 is like using Bing in 2010.
This is the bad place!
well if you dont like it so much dont post stuff like this, half of us havent even heard of it, but now here i go to check what it is and see if i like it or not.
i have never heard of that.
Because of cookies? I've literally never seen that site.
When I search Sears-Haack body on Google, Wikipedia is #1
The problem is with your algorithm or your search.
I’m in the US and Grokipedia is the 6th one down
I mean... If I google Grokipedia, the WIKIPEDIA page for Grokipedia is first. It's above the actual Grokipiedia website.
Whatever this garbage is, is probably using bots to route searches and boost its numbers.
No one has heard of this before.
Idk what browser or search engine you're using but grok doesn't appear on the first page of any search I do.
Never seen grokipedia before, I use ecosia on my Phone and while searching for sears-haak body 4 pages no grok, the results only get more scientific witb each Page, only researchgate links.
Thanks for assuring my decision to fuck off from Google
Probably shows up that way for you based on your usage history. 🤷♂️
Duck duck go does not do this
OP, I'm guessing that Wikipedia is being ranked lower since you searched for the word parametric which was dropped. Your search even says that Wikipedia does not contain that term.
No, for me on that result, Wikipedia is still first. Grok is second
What? How?
I thought this problem would solve itself. The majority of ppl know it’s a right wing info site so would avoid it
Is Elon paying someone 🤔
He's paying Google to boost Grokipedia's SEO
Just stop using Google.
There are better alternatives out there (DuckDuckGo).
Some even let you completely block sites from your results so that you never see those sites again, and prioritize those that you do want to see more often (Kagi).
You think this might be a hint to change your search engine?
Because it sure isn't above wikipedia on Ecosia or startpage.
Tech oligarchs scratching each others backs. Google and Musk both want wikipedia and other non-profits to die. Nobody who actually cares about anything important would purposely choose AI slop over wikipedia. It shows up in the search results because google wants it to.
Problem with AI is you need to verify all the info it gives. So your just adding an extra step when looking for information.
I guess you must use Twitter a lot or something lol...never heard of it, and just adding "wiki" to anything almost always brings up Wikipedia, or any other non-fascist organization.
Grokipedia will take over the world and nobody can do anything about it 🤯
If you’re here wondering “What the fuck is a Grokipedia?”, hazard a guess as to who’s bankrolling it.
WTF is grokpedia?
Musk took a disliking to Wikipedia and decided he needed to make his own
Gross
Probably because google is training their AI with it over wikipedia.
Why?
It actually has more information on the page than wikipedia. Wikipedia's power was in the linked data, but due to more recent web shenanigaree, old websites are being edited, taken down, articles are being modified.
The only way to properly capture this data is with a snapshot (and even those are being taken down from time to time at the request of global governments - ahem...WTF - so the best training data is the stuff that is all in the same spot. Instead of searching through links and training off of conflicting data, they can go to one place.
Simply put, Grokipedia is better for AI training and LLMs so search engines are boosting it in order to "cheat" / reduce overhead.
What the fuck is that?
grok will never replace my unofficial wiki girl wikipe-tan
Utter woke nonsense
Stay asleep if you want, nobody minds
This thread appears higher than grokpedia when I search
