I'm not sure that's new information. It's utilizing inferences. Basically, humans are much better at stereotyping / categorizing objects than machines currently are. But that could change (and is changing). Watson, for instance, seems pretty good at making inferences.

In general, inference requires the creation of new information, in a Kolmogorov complexity sense. I.e. perfect inference uses Solmonoff induction, and Solomonoff induction is only possible with the ability to enumerate all elegant programs. But infinite Kolmogorov complexity is necessary to enumerate all elegant programs.
