A tale for the season: the whimsical parable of the hedgehog and the fox sheds dazzling light on AI advances and those majestically emerging self-driving cars

There is a famous line by an Ancient Greek poet named Archilochus that goes something like this: Multa novit vulpes, verum echinus unum magnum.

Roughly translated, this is interpreted as ascertaining the revered and yet some say perhaps wholly misunderstood contention that a fox knows many things, but a hedgehog knows one big thing. If you prefer, you are seemingly able to put that in the other order, namely that a hedgehog knows one big thing while a fox knows many things.
