I wonder if CYC would have had more success if it was open and collaborative. WikiData seems like a successful cousin. I know the goals are a quite different - wikidata doesn't really store "common sense" knowledge, but it seems any rule-based AI system would probably want to use wikidata as a database of facts.

I looked into it years ago and adding to, say, opencyc, really did not seem simple. There was a lot of detail in the entity descriptions. Even reading them seemed to required an awful lot of background knowledge of the system.

It may have been possible to at least add lots of parallel items / instances. For example more authors and books and music works and performers, etc. Anyone here built a system around opencyc? Or cyc?
