马斯克的 AI 百科全书 Grokipedia 存逐字照搬维基百科现象
Sou Hu Cai Jing· 2025-10-28 03:25
马斯克旗下 xAI 推出的类维基百科在线百科全书"Grokipedia"现已上线,其与维基百科的相似程度远超预期。 目前 Grokipedia 的设计极为基础:与维基百科类似,首页主体是一个巨大的搜索框,条目内容也呈现出非常简单的维基风格,包含标题、子标题和引用来 源。截至目前,尚未在该网站上看到任何图片。维基百科允许用户编辑页面,但 Grokipedia 目前似乎并未开放此功能——尽管部分页面顶部出现了醒目 的"编辑"按钮,但点击后仅显示已有的修改记录,并未说明具体由谁提出或执行了这些更改,也无法自行提交修改建议。 此外,Grokipedia 的条目声称内容已由 Grok 进行"事实核查",这一说法颇具争议,原因在于大型语言模型常常会捏造虚假的"事实"。此外,条目中并未明 确标注"事实核查"的具体时间。 以气候变化为例,维基百科的相关条目明确指出:"科学界近乎一致认为气候正在变暖,且主要由人类活动导致。没有任何具有国家或国际权威地位的科学 机构对此观点提出异议。" 而在 Grokipedia 的相关条目中,"一致"一词仅出现在一段文字中:"批评者认为,关于人为因素主导近期气候变化存在近乎一致科学共识的说法, ...

南极海域甲烷逸出点激增
Ren Min Ri Bao· 2025-10-26 22:19
(责编:卫嘉、白宇) 领导这项研究的海洋学家萨拉·西布鲁克说,这些逸出点多为近年来形成,说明新西兰大陆周边南极区 域甲烷排放模式出现重大变化。甲烷逸出是指甲烷等化学物质从海底下方储层逸出并溶入海水,部分形 成直达水面的气泡流。2012年,首个逸出点在南极偶然被发现,此后数量持续增加,在北极也观测到类 似现象。团队记录了深入南极洲的罗斯海浅水区域几十处新的甲烷逸出点。西布鲁克说,如果这种趋势 持续,5到10年后的南极近岸环境将发生怎样的变化,令人深思。 据新华社惠灵顿电 (记者龙雷、李惠子)新西兰地球科学组织领导的一项国际研究发现,在南极海域 发现的甲烷逸出点数量正以惊人的速度增加,引发对这类现象与气候变化关联性的担忧。 《 人民日报 》( 2025年10月27日 14 版) ...
