  "all of the knowledge" is a huge part of AI. The bigger the datasets, the better results you have from machine learning, and it's a trivial thing for AI to absorb huge amounts of information. What humans find difficult, computers can do easily and it's usually vice-versa for stuff like pattern recognition, creativity.

    > The bigger the datasets, the better results you have Wouldn't you agree that the ability to achieve relatively good results with relatively small datasets is one of the main reasons for the current ML boom? > it's a trivial thing for AI to absorb huge amounts of information Of course, I agree on that. But I also note that "traditional" (non-ML) algorithms can digest big data too, so I don't see that ability as the defining characteristic of the current wave of ML-related technologies.
