Will Wikipedia be written by AI? Founder Jimmy Wales is thinking about it
By now, even those of us who live under a rock have become familiar with ChatGPT, the AI-powered chatbot that can find us the answer to almost every question under the sun. It seems to be able to effortlessly write reports, compose letters or even poetry — for any subject it’s asked about, it dutifully complies and does so at breakneck speed. It has even been known to declare its love for the users that interact with it.

It looks like this: WikipediaQL-the-library does roughly this: Parses query in WikipediaQL-the-language; Uses MediaWiki API to fetch pages' metadata; Uses action=parse API to fetch each page's content HTML; Applies selectors from the query to page to extract structured data.
