As a base for researching the idea, Wikipedia seems like a decent data source.
For broader implementation you would want to develop the approach further. The idea of sampling other-language Wikipedia mentioned in a sibling comment seems to be a decent next step.
Extending it to bringing in from wider sources would be another step. I doubt it would be infallible but it would be really interesting to see how it compares to humans performing the same task. Especially if there were a additional ability to verify written articles and make corrections.
- philipov 3y ago> As a base for researching the idea, Wikipedia seems like a decent data source. If your goal is to generate a wiki article, you can't assume one already exists. That's begging the question. If you could just search wikipedia for the answer, you wouldn't need to generate an article.
- Lerc 3y agoI don't think their goal is to generate a wikipedia article. Their goal is to figure out how one might generate a wikipedia article.
