Abstract: The purpose of this paper is to discuss the possibilities for computing machinery, or AI agents, to know and to possess knowledge. This is done mainly from a virtue epistemology perspective and definition of knowledge. However, this inquiry also shed light on the human condition, what it means for a human to know, and to possess knowledge. The paper argues that it is possible for an AI agent to know and examines this from both current state-of-the-art in artificial intelligence as well as from the perspective of what the future AI development might bring in terms of superintelligent AI agents.
