Types of knowledge:
- Common-sense vs. common knowledge (according to Cambria and White, 2014[1]): "common-sense knowledge (which humans normally acquire during the formative years of their lives) and common knowledge (which people continue to accrue in their everyday life) in a re-usable knowledge base for machines. Common knowledge includes general knowledge about the world, e.g., a chair is a type of furniture, while common-sense knowledge comprises obvious or widely accepted things that people normally know about the world but which are usually left unstated in discourse, e.g., that things fall downwards (and not upwards) and people smile when they are happy. The difference between common and common-sense knowledge can be expressed as the difference between knowing the name of an object and understanding the same object’s purpose. For example, you can know the name of all the different kinds or brands of ‘pipe’, but not its purpose nor the method of usage. In other words, a ‘pipe’ is not a pipe unless it can be used (Magritte, 1929)."
