SciencePedia is an open, collaborative, and trustworthy scientific knowledge base, dedicated to building humanity's "Scientific Knowledge Universe". We use disciplines as the framework and knowledge points as the smallest units, pursuing scientific knowledge that is accessible, structured, verifiable, and dynamically updated.
We are at an unprecedented scientific information explosion "singularity", where AI is profoundly reshaping paradigms of human learning, cognition, and innovation. We aim to:
- 🛡️ Reshape humanity's scientific knowledge with rigor, openness, and consensus
- 🧭 Build a "Science Navigator" to help explorers locate themselves and understand the big picture
- 📍 Generate "Learning Path" to guide everyone to the frontiers of the science
For this purpose, we have officially launched the SciencePedia Open Source Project!
- ✅ Establish boundaries, structure, and verification mechanisms for scientific knowledge
- ✅ Support AI-based and personalized learning path for research and education
- ✅ Accelerate AI for Science to enable autonomous research innovation and scientific discoveries
In the near future:
- Every discipline will have a complete, verifiable knowledge system
- Everyone can freely access accurate, systematic scientific knowledge
- Everyone can generate their own learning path on demand
- Every researcher can customize their exclusive "scientific database"
- Every scientific frontier advancement can automatically integrate into the discipline's evolution
