A new study published on arXiv investigated the political neutrality of Grokipedia, an encyclopedia created by the LLM Grok, comparing it to Wikipedia. The research analyzed 1,394 article pairs about government members across nine ideology dimensions using four LLM judges: Grok, Claude, Mistral, and DeepSeek. Contrary to its aim of being an unbiased alternative, Grokipedia was rated as less neutral than Wikipedia by all LLM judges. While both encyclopedias were found to portray politicians favorably, they exhibited different ideological biases, with Grokipedia favoring economically right-wing politicians and penalizing socially liberal ones, whereas Wikipedia showed a bias towards the latter.
