I mentioned this in one of my other comments but even if AI figures this out where humans can't, I think this will involve coming to the conclusion that there really is an objective, knowable truth at the core of the universe or at least a set of tools will be developed for better discerning what that truth is. Even if you're talking about knowing who someone's spouse is, I'm not convinced we can ever teach a machine how you know what is true unless we're willing to have some sort of basic tenet of what truth is or how to discern it.

That was the last generation of AI attempts: things like Cyc https://cyc.com/ , trying to turn all of human knowledge into a really big database of predicate logic.
