After ‘‘Watson’’

---

Purpose – This essay aims to explore the changes that will occur in both the natural and social sciences
in general and education in particular with the advent of the cloud, fast computers and sophisticated
data analysis software coupled with artificial intelligence.
Design/methodology/approach – The paper looks at literature, particularly science fiction, and recent
developments in technology.
Findings – With massive data and analytical capabilities existing, ubiquitously in the ‘‘cloud’’ coupled
with low cost access via smart phones, tablets and similar technologies, the cost of knowledge
acquisition will asymptotically approach zero and the movement of knowledge across geo-political
boundaries will profoundly affect all across the planet.
Originality/value – The paper reveals that the potential of the leveling of knowledge will change the
relationships between the developed and developing countries.
