Wikidata has a different license, it&#x27;s just a PR piece that means little. How many facts have been imported since Jan 2015? Wikidata is at 15,473,837, Freebase (summer 2015) is at 3,146,939,673. Basically Google&#x27;s Freebase shut-down throw AI research back at least two years (assuming Wikidata can catch up to 90% of Freebase size in 2018). Now Google, Microsoft and IBM have an competitive advantage - each has its own closed knowledge base.
