Abstract :The study examines the historical journey of information, which started with stone and clay tablets and continued with papyrus, parchment, and paper forms, and ultimately its transformation into digital form with industry 4.0 & 5.0 information technologies (IT), the information age. The developments in IT, that is, computer, network/internet/www, have opened the doors of a new world. Based on these developments, the transformation of information and information resources into digital form, their inclusion in computers and networks, their movement at the global level (www), and their visibility and accessibility have revolutionized the world of information. It has opened the doors of a new world where the information transformed into digital form is used with open source software and internet (w2-w3) supported open data and accredited scientific research data supported by big data, and artificial intelligence software enables the information to think autonomously, produce content, speak and show actionable behaviors. The study tries to find an answer to the question that artificial intelligence (AI) could replace information centers that archive, process, manage, and provide access to accredited information and evaluate the situation.
