Introduction

In an era where every click, swipe, and keystroke generates a sliver of data, a fascinating hypothesis emerges: if data has mass, could the overwhelming influx transform Earth into a black hole of information? While scientifically speculative, this notion serves as a vivid metaphor for the potentially overwhelming power of accumulated data. Yet, amidst these cosmic concerns, artificial intelligence (AI) is a beacon, guiding us through this dense information fog. How, then, can AI act as the light of knowledge, helping us navigate and harness the immense potential of our data-driven universe?
