Argenton stared at Rui with a stunned expression. "What do you mean 'AI does not integrate information'? Of course it does. Machine learning is an umbrella term for a large number of computer science techniques that integrate information to improve a model's intelligence and knowledge."
Rui shook his head. "AI integrates data, not information."
"…Is there a meaningful difference there?"
"There is," Rui insisted. "Data is information stored by virtue of a gathered group of otherwise disconnected voltages, photon states, or in the quantum spins of electrons, depending on whether it's electronics, photonics, or quantum computing. Information is something more fundamental. Information is the fifth fundamental force of the universe. Perhaps The fundamental force of the universe."
