Stefan, The element that is missing from these definitions is the question.
Knowledge equals logic equals meaning. All knowledge/logic/mmeaning is organized in a triadic, three-dimensional structure that is open-ended and juxtaposed against an antithetical field of 'anti-logic.' This is the logic that has not been formed yet and it is realized by questions. Questions are the perceived lack of knowledge structure.
What is seen as 'levels of true' is really a complex mix of questions and logic. Concepts that are 'partly true' are knowledge mixed with questions. These two meet at the 'cutting edge,' which is the line between the known and the unknown. Knowledge structure not connected to the social structure is theory. For theory to become 'known' questions must be answered to connect it to mainstream knowledge.
Science evolves through empirical logic and is divergent and is fueled by discovery. Technology evolves through rational logic and is divergent and is fueled by invention/creativity. Both discovery and invention/creativity operate by a single, simple, knowledge creation process which is essentially the conversion of questions to knowledge/logic/meaning/structure at the cutting edge of knowledge. ALL social advance is fueled by this single, simple, knowledge creation process.
Artificial intelligence then, is knowledge stored. Artificial knowledge creation is the mechanized process of converting questions into knowledge, which is singularity.

Is your definition of knowledge limited to what is provably true and known facts or is the level of certainty/probability of the retained storage excluded? This aspect seems abscent from your definition.
