While it is true that you can download the entire English Wikipedia in a relatively small size, it does not diminish the potential of AI and LLMs. Wikipedia is a static collection of human-generated knowledge, while AI, such as LLMs, can actively synthesize, analyze, and generate new insights based on available information. AI has the potential to connect disparate pieces of knowledge, create context, and provide personalized assistance. Thus, the comparison between Wikipedia and AI should not be based on size alone, but also on the dynamic capabilities and potential applications that AI offers.

For example, can you infer to Wikipedia to tell you how to distil water in a step by step process given only certain tools, or what process to disinfect a wound when there are no medication available? Sure you can find information on it, but a lot of people won't know what to do with it given the information.

That is the difference between Knowledge and Wisdom.
