Google has created a 500-million-item database of people, places, and things. The results of the effort will start appearing today in search, offering encyclopedic capsules of information on various topics.
These screenshots are from Google's press materials announcing the project, called the Knowledge Graph.
By way of introduction, Google points out that the current search engine is quite good and finding results even if the query is spelled wrong. But the results could be better.
A search for "Kings" can refer to one of two sports teams, or a TV show. Google currently will find results that match all of these, even if you know that you're looking for only one.
This promotional slide simply illustrates the point that Google has built a rich data set that understands the nouns that people search for. The company uses both human and algorithms to categorize things.
