Wikipedia's Role in developing a Knowledge-Based API in AI

Bezos mentioned that in the future different kinds of AI that will offer a diversity of services to users can be developed. The long-term vision to develop a knowledge base API in Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning that Bezos envisioned can also be realized by the aid of Wikipedia.

The development of knowledge based APIs does not have to be by feeding information from Wikipedia, but following guidelines and standards of a certain subject topic in Wikipedia.

For example, the Wikipedia article “List of Chess Openings” will outline which Chess Openings that a Chess Playing AI must train. In addition, Wikipedia’s catalog further displays topics related to Chess that the AI might want to learn.

The way the site organizes its information effectively and attractively is why while the information in Wikipedia is not necessarily accurate, Wikipedia will still be useful.
