LLMPEDIA: Browsing, Verifying, and Comparing the Parametric Encyclopedic Knowledge of LLMs

Abstract

Flagship language models appear saturated on benchmarks like MMLU (Hendrycks et al., 2021), scoring above 90% - yet benchmarks test only what the experimenter thought to ask, the availability bias of fixed question sets. LLMPEDIA makes this bias measurable and browsable. We recursively materialized ~1.3M articles from three model families' parametric memory (GPT-5-mini, DeepSeek-V3.2, Llama-3.3-70B) without retrieval, then audited a stratified sample of atomic claims against Wikipedia and a curated web stack, coloring every claim supported, refuted, or insufficient (Saeed and Razniewski, 2026). On a uniform random sample the true rate is 68.4% - more than 21 pp below MMLU - with 30.5% of claims insufficient: assertions no benchmark probes and the world's largest encyclopedia cannot adjudicate - long-tail knowledge or plausible hallucination, the evidence cannot tell - extending to free text the coverage gap GPTKB established for triples (Hu et al., 2025). The resulting live, open encyclopedia lets visitors inspect this frontier one claim at a time through five one-click views - link-traversal exploration, claim-level factuality, cross-model and political-persona comparison, and a guided topic drill-down - each page, claim, and verdict at a stable URL.
