Elon Musk’s Grokipedia Quietly Stopped Updating In April. Basically No One Noticed.
As perhaps a few Elon Musk fans may remember, he got really annoyed at Wikipedia last year and tasked his second-rate LLM, Grok, with recreating it as "Grokipedia." Grokipedia, launched nearly a year ago, basically starts by forking Wikipedia and then having its AI "generate" more details and more stories. It's... not very good. And...

Wikimedia vill inte erkänna fackföreningar
Wikipedia är under attack från högerextremister, fascister och deras likar. De vill krossa Wikipedia och låta Ai tar över all information till användarna på internet. I det läget har Wikimedia Foundation (WMF) som delvis står bakom Wikipedia valt att agera mot facklig organisering

What Is a Harness?
LLMs are engines. Harnesses are everything else—the wheels, brakes, dashboard, GPS—that turn a raw engine into a useful vehicle. First in a series on harnesses for the open knowledge commons.

Ein Vulnerability Report kam rein: angeblich Terrapin (CVE-2023-48795) auf meinem SSH-Server. Stellte sich raus: fremder Server per CNAME aliased, JavaScript-Typ im Template vergessen. Trotzdem ein guter Anlass zu security.txt und Umgang mit solchen Hinweisen.

Wikipedia's traffic drop: more on languages and freshness
Following up on last week's post, I looked at 5,000 "Vital Articles" across eight major-language Wikipedias. Articles about math, physical sciences and tech are waaaay down, while people, geography, and history hold up far better—regardless of which language they're in. Article freshness matters too—but not as much.

Getting cited as a source on Wikipedia
I use analytics on this site primarily to see where referral traffic comes from. It's not necessary, but it satisfies my curiosity. One of the most interesting referrals I've received was from Wikipedia.

Wikipedia at 25: What the web can be
When Wikipedia launched 25 years ago today, I heard about it almost immediately, because the Internet was small back then, and I thought “Well… good luck to those guys.” Because there had been online encyclopedias before Wikipedia, and anybody who really _cared_ about this stuff would, of course,…

The People's Web
Every day, millions of people rely on independent websites that are mostly created by regular people, weren't designed as mobile apps, connect deeply to culture, and aren't run by the giant tech companies. These are a vision of not just what the web once was, but what it can be again. --- Think of…

Alan Leeds and Who Writes the Web
One of the most frequent questions I get when I talk to people who are unfamiliar with social media on the web is, “Who writes all these blogs or Wikipedia? Who has the time?” The answer, at least in this case, is me. People who are skeptical about the web never seem to believe that we have a lot…
