Have you ever tried to read a government data dump? It is usually a nightmare of unorganized PDFs, unlabeled images, and endless spreadsheets designed to be technically accessible but practically unreadable. That is exactly what happened following the passage of the Epstein Files Transparency Act (EFTA), which saw the US government release millions of pages related to the Jeffrey Epstein investigation in late 2025 and early 2026.
The sheer volume of this data created what analysts call a "legibility crisis." The truth was out there, but it was buried under a mountain of digital paper. Enter Riley Walz and Luke Igel. These internet artists and developers have launched Jikipedia, an AI-powered encyclopedia that attempts to turn that chaos into order. By using artificial intelligence to scrape and synthesize the released emails, they have built a platform that looks and feels exactly like Wikipedia, but with a singular, dark focus: the associates of Jeffrey Epstein.
How does Jikipedia generate its dossiers?
Jikipedia isn’t manually curated like the traditional Wikipedia you use every day. Instead, it leverages AI to scan the massive cache of documents released under the EFTA. The system identifies names, cross-references email exchanges, and generates comprehensive dossiers on individuals found in Epstein’s inbox.
The level of detail is reportedly granular. According to the research, entries include specific metrics such as the number of emails exchanged with Epstein, basic biographical data, and known visits to his various properties. Perhaps most controversial are the AI-generated sections titled "Knowledge of Crimes" and "Laws Broken." These sections attempt to summarize potential legal liabilities based solely on the text of the emails.
This follows the duo’s previous project, Jmail, which presented Epstein’s inbox as a functional, searchable Gmail clone. Jikipedia takes that raw data and synthesizes it into narrative reports. As co-creator Luke Igel put it, the goal is to make the scandal "hyperlegible," allowing anyone with a smartphone to deep-dive into the intricate web of connections.
