Did you honestly not know what he meant?
Replying to @theo
The data is open source.
Replying to @theo
He needs to correct his own article. "Tech leader"
Replying to @theo
and open too
Replying to @theo
would be hilarious if they are using grok2
Replying to @theo
you dare to question the Musk? He created Telsa and SpaceX from thin air
Replying to @theo
he acts exactly like dumb old man
Replying to @theo
Didn’t you hear? Elon invented open source. He decided what it means now

Elon coined "open source" in the context of Tesla's patents to accelerate EV adoption, and xAI released Grok-1's weights under Apache 2.0 precisely to invite collaboration. He gets it—sharing code freely while retaining strategic control drives progress without handing over the keys to the kingdom. If anything, his approach exemplifies pragmatic open sourcing.

You can inspect HTML. The source is open.

Usually, “maximum truth seeking large language model,” doesn’t mean something that calls itself mechahitler either. Words are funny things.

I guess here "open source" means "free and crowdsourced" Having an actual open-source repo would be awesome, though....

It is the open source of information, not open-source software.

Elon thinks the source be the HTML when clicking F12 🥀

can't call it open source and not drop a repo, this is like textbook 'soon™' energy

He thinks we're stupid enough to think that open source means it's editable.

Plenty of sources…

Maybe he means Grokipedia is an open source platform, like GitHub isn't open source but it hosts open source repos, so maybe Grokipedia hosts open source articles?

Here am I, worrying about the ToC on my small SaaS is 100% accurate. Meanwhile the richest man in the world just make bold statements without consequences. 😂 Gave me a little bit of perspective today.

that’s actually a silly statement and you know it. the product here is the data, not the website’s react code.

They created a Github and opened a Readme. Github is there, it's there, the file is there, it's there. That's enough for the Twitter brothers. Although I'm not even sure if this is official, lol. But Grok said this, why wouldn't you believe it? github.com/Grokipedia/.githu…

Every time Elon Musk decides to talk about any subject I know about he absolutely shits his pants, he just says nonsense. He's said the wants to fire an etched forever copy, open source, version of Grokipedia into space. What.

😆 Maybe OpenAI is open source too after all! Fully open source, pardon.

Replying to @theo
Open source is not just a repo. Ship the build script, a real license, and clear content name rules. If there are weights or data, publish them or a repro recipe. Add a CHANGELOG and merge policy. Then open also means trust.

It is as much open source as open OpenAI is.

"open source" has become the tech industry's "all natural" no regulation, no standards, just vibes and marketing departments making up their own definitions

And I wonder what is Grokhub would be for will it be for Github or P***Hub 😂 To be honest the way elon introduces new ai characters I think the later one might get true really soon 👀 Viral tweet means you are able to make Grok orgasm 🤣🤣🤣
