Show HN: Fakeipedia – Wikipedia for worlds that don't exist

https://fakeipedia.org
12•darajava•4h ago
Hi HN!

Fakeipedia is an automatic world-building platform which takes an imagined world and makes a whole wiki that you can endlessly explore by clicking red links.

I came up with this idea a few months ago after playing around with worldbuilding in Gemini, but I didn't want to release it until a powerful enough model could do it justice, and I decided that Argon is creative enough to write articles that are worth reading. I was surprised how well it turned out and how engaging some of the writing actually is.

If you want to generate an article there is a nominal charge attached ($0.90), which helps cover AI/Stripe costs, and I think I just about break even. You can also steer the generation ala choose-your-own-adventure books when generating a new article. Everything generated is free and public for everyone to see.

I hope you like it and I'm very much open to hearing about new world ideas/features that would make this project better.

We already have this, it's called Wikipedia.

So were all the articles generated using Gemini Argon?

I find that surprising because, after all, they're not badly written and don't exhibit the typical AI writing patterns, at least not in "You" or "The Veracity Shift"
