It was reported to be different from the Knowledge Graph in that it gathered information automatically instead of relying on crowd-sourced facts compiled by humans. Google's Knowledge Vault was meant to deal with facts, automatically gathering and merging information from across the Internet into a knowledge base capable of answering direct questions, such as "Where was Madonna born?" In a 2014 report, the Vault was reported to have collected over 1.6 billion facts, 271 million of which were considered "confident facts" deemed to be more than 90% true. Search Engine Land expressed indications that Google was experimenting with "numerous models" for gathering meaning from text. After publication, Google reached out to Search Engine Land to explain that Knowledge Vault was a research report, not an active Google service. In August 2014, New Scientist reported that Google had launched a Knowledge Vault project. The Knowledge Graph was powered in part by Freebase. Initially available only in English, it was expanded in December 2012 to Spanish, French, German, Portuguese, Japanese, Russian and Italian. Google announced its Knowledge Graph on May 16, 2012, as a way to significantly enhance the value of information returned by Google searches. It has been criticized for providing answers with neither source attribution nor citations. It is used to answer direct spoken questions in Google Assistant and Google Home voice queries. Īccording to Google, its information is retrieved from many sources, including the CIA World Factbook and Wikipedia. There is no official documentation of how the Google Knowledge Graph is implemented. By March 2023, this had grown to 800 billion facts on 8 billion entities. By mid-2016, Google reported that it held 70 billion facts and answered "roughly one-third" of the 100 billion monthly searches they handled. The information covered by Google's Knowledge Graph grew quickly after launch, tripling its data size within seven months (covering 570 million entities and 18 billion facts ). The data is generated automatically from a variety of sources, covering places, people, businesses, and more. This allows the user to see the answer in a glance, as an instant answer. The Google Knowledge Graph is a knowledge base from which Google serves relevant information in an infobox beside its search results.
