The Computers Or Machines That Use Micro-Chip Processors Are Taking Over This Article Is From The New Scientist Magazine On Sign Of The Times Website. Humanity,s Love Affair With Technology Is Becoming A Dangerous Attachment . (Please Remember Who Is Making You Aware And Explaining Unfolding Events) Thank You Good People ! Namastu. Google is building the largest store of knowledge in human history - and its doing so without any human help. Instead, Knowledge Vault autonomously gathers and merges information from across the web into a single base of facts about the world, and the people and objects in it. The breadth and accuracy of this gathered knowledge is already becoming the foundation of systems that allow robots and smartphones to understand what people ask them. It promises to let Google answer questions like an oracle rather than a search engine, and even to turn a new lens on human history. Knowledge Vault is a type of knowledge base - a system that stores information so that machines as well as people can read it. Where a database deals with numbers, a knowledge base deals with facts. When you type Where was Madonna born into Google, for example, the place given is pulled from Googles existing knowledge base. This existing base, called Knowledge Graph, relies on crowdsourcing to expand its information. But the firm noticed that growth was stalling; humans could only take it so far. So Google decided it needed to automate the process. It started building the Vault by using an algorithm to automatically pull in information from all over the web, using machine learning to turn the raw data into usable pieces of knowledge. sott.net/article/284317-Google-is-building-a-massive-fact-database
