DIKW pyramid as blueprint for Artificial Intelligence

 A DIKW pyramid divides facts into separate layers:

- low level = sensory data, e.g. color=(20,10,178), distance=2 meter
- mid level= label space, e.g. [bluecolor], [mediumdistance], [baterryfull]
- high level = knowledge. e.g. "bring me the blue box from room A"

Its not an algorithm but a data representation format, similar to the Unicode table. After implementing the DIWK pyramid as a computer program its possible to interact with the robot in natural language. The human operator formulates a request on the high level layer, e.g. "bring me the blue box" and this request is translated into mid level and low level.

The principle is similar to the TCP/IP protocol layer which allows divides communication into layers for reducing complexity. The working thesis is, that a dikw pyramid can explain what artificial intelligence is about. If the robot has access to a DIKW pyramid, the robot is intelligent.

The main purpose of a DIKW pyramid is to act as an interface between internal world and external world. The low level layer is located inside the robot, while the high level layer is located outside of the robot. Communication means to transmit messages physical but also translate the message between the layers.
