Google alerts me when my name appears on the Internet. I don’t recall when or how I ever signed up for this and it is not completely accurate, but it is free. Yesterday I received a link to an article about Webb Chiles in something called Grokipedia. I had never heard of Grokipedia, so I googled and got one AI’s evaluation of another. I quote Google’s AI overview: Grokipedia is an AI-powered online encyclopedia launched by Elon Musk’s company, xAI, as a rival to Wikipedia, aiming to offer an alternative with different ideological leanings, often incorporating right-leaning perspectives from Musk’s viewpoint, generated and adapted by its Grok chatbot.
I then clicked on the link to see what Grok has to say about me. Despite inaccuracies, starting with the year I was born, and repetitions, I am impressed. The article is considerably more extensive than the one in Wikipedia. Grok gets a surprising amount of Webb Chiles right.

That is a fine entry. I have never heard of grokipedia, so now I am slightly ‘moore’ informed. Webb, you are entertaining and pleasure to follow in your adventures. Cheers, Ants Uiga
I thought you would like this. I went back about a year in your blog to see if it had come up before.
Open boat
Interesting passage
A frank acceptance of capsize and the resulting beautiful vessel designed around that acceptance.
Great insight into a very particular thought process which heavily prioritizes speed as a safety measure.

I look forward to more of your writing. Be well.
Thanks for the link, Rand. That is a very pretty and well thought out boat. I had to turn on subtitles to understand the narration.
