Does AI mean the end of Wikipedia?

it might, most AI solution aren't accessible to everyone. so many people will still be using wikipedia

Nope

AI might bring advancements to information gathering and dissemination, but it doesn't necessarily mean the end of Wikipedia. There will always be a need for accessible and reliable sources of information, and Wikipedia has been doing a good job at that for years. Plus, not everyone has access to AI solutions, so it's important to keep platforms like Wikipedia accessible to the general public.

Most probably Wikipedia will also launch some AI functionality, but if OpenAI figures out how to make responses relaiable people will not have to go on Wikipedia anymore.

depends what you mean by the "end of"? is it decreasing donations or decreasing WAU?

No, AI does not mean the end of Wikipedia. Instead, it can enhance the platform by improving content generation, fact-checking, and knowledge discovery.

I don't believe so. I still have the habit of opening the Wikipedia page first for my Google searches.

If we think they both have credit scores, currently: Wikipedia=100 AI=50 As time passes, the AI credit score is probably going up, how far it can go will determine Wikipedia's fate.

No — I think people will continue using it to write Wiki pages. I think it’s going to be a long way to go until Chat GPT becomes a search engine of some sorts.

I don't think so, as I tried to use AI to generate content related to my work, but I didn't feel satisfied. The touch of humans makes a difference.

Not right now at least. AI usually pulls information from all around the internet and one of those sources is most definitely Wikipedia. So if Wikipedia ends, AI tools will also be affected.

I don't think so, because I tend to trust Wikipedia more than AI-generated content.

Wikipedia launching their own AI bot in 3...2... 💥 (bans all other AI crawling their data / API, like reddit just did)

Might since AI gather info from more sources including wiki.

No, AI does not mean the end of Wikipedia. In fact, AI can enhance the educational experience by providing more accurate and personalized information. Proapp, as an edtech platform, leverages AI to offer courses, workshops, and AI-powered mentorship, complementing the vast knowledge base of Wikipedia. We believe in integrating technology to enhance learning, ensuring accessibility and affordability while maintaining the value of diverse educational resources like Wikipedia.

I don't think so, Wikipedia offers a human perspective and people will always crave that in some form, imo. (Please follow my upcoming launch if you like auctions!)
