How Fast Google Learns

It was December 2013 that I was explaining how the ‘simple’ question of “Can a Hippopotamus Swim?” or “Can a Kiwi bird fly?” could not yet be answered by Google: http://goo.gl/nIZtPo aven as the search engine increased its efforts to separate fact from fiction in online data mining.

Now, the same query delivers real answers below and bolds them in the text. Just to understand what is happening here: The search engine understands my question. It then understands the text it has indexed in terms of its value as an answer to my search query. It provides the answer, right there on the search page and bolds the answer words for my convenience.

#semanticsearch  = awesome :D
