Wikipedia's founder explains social media's trust problem

Wikipedia's founder explains social media's trust problem

Wikipedia has something in common with your local electric plant: both are utilities that are protected in their own right. Wikipedia was founded in 2001 by Jimmy Wales and Larry Sanger. Since then, the site has operated as a nonprofit, with posts on people, places, and things edited by volunteers. Wikipedia, the online encyclopedia, attracts billions of visits every month and has also increasingly come under attack for alleged left-leaning bias, as seen in comments from billionaire Tesla founder Elon Musk. So what does the future hold for this digital utility in the new norm of political backlash and AI proliferation? Yahoo Finance Executive Editor Brian Sozzi talks on the Opening Bid Unfiltered podcast with Wikipedia co-founder Jimmy Wales, who is out soon with a new book called The 7 Rules of Trust. Wales takes Sozzi inside the founding of Wikipedia and how he views the platform’s place in society today — and into the future. Yahoo Finance's Opening Bid Unfiltered brings you a high-octane take on the freshest analyst calls, wildest stock moves, and shrewdest commentary in the business world. Executive Editor Brian Sozzi puts Wall Street's finest through their paces in this essential conversation for every investor, before the stock market opens.
