Collective Knowledge: Generative AI in chatbot format as a helper … the term ‘collective knowledge’ represents a crucial keyword for a characteristic that deeply defines humans—the life form of ‘homo sapiens.’ For an individual, ‘collective knowledge’ is directly hardly perceivable, but without this collective knowledge, no single human would have any knowledge at all. Yes, this not only sounds like a paradox, it is a paradox. While a ‘contradiction’ between two different statements represents a factual incompatibility, a ‘paradox’ also conveys the impression of a ‘contradiction,’ but in fact, in terms of the matter, it is not an ‘incompatibility.’ The ‘knowledge of us individuals’ is real knowledge, but due to the finiteness of our bodies, our perception system, our memory, we can factually only gather a very small amount of knowledge ‘in us.’ However, the more people there are, the more ‘knowledge’ each person ‘produces’ daily—just analogously, or then also digitally—the greater grows the amount of knowledge that we humans ‘deposit’ in our world. Newspapers, books, libraries, databases can collect and sort this knowledge to a limited extent. But an individual can only find and ‘process’ small fractions of this ‘collected knowledge.’ The gap between the ‘available collected knowledge’ and the ‘individually processable knowledge’ is constantly growing. In such a situation, the availability of generative artificial intelligence in the format of chatbots (GAI-ChaBo) is almost an ‘evolutionary event’! This new technology does not solve all questions, but it can help the individual to ‘principally’ get a novel direct access to what we should call ‘collective knowledge of humanity.’
