Evolution of Knowledge Representation

The evolution of knowledge representation from the semantic web to modern knowledge graphs is traced. Initially, the focus was on the entire web and data representation through ontologies. Tim Berners-Lee's vision shifted towards building agents that can act autonomously, leading to the concept of knowledge graphs. The goal is to combine data sources without human intervention, enabling the development of user-centric applications. The distinction between technical approaches like tables and graphs is addressed, emphasizing the importance of modeling and identifiers.
