Not sure about Wikipedia, but Conservapedia would find it very useful. In fact, since most of their entries are factually incorrect and appear as fantasy I think AI writing articles would save them a lot of time.

Bonus: hallucinations can help create new conspiracy theories!

Sit down Jimmy. Wikipedia has enough problems already, it doesn't need more to be added by AI.
