Correct Response: C. Data mining uses artificial intelligence to detect patterns in data. Before this is possible, the program must be trained by examining an extremely large data set. In general, this technology requires the processing of millions or even billions of pieces of data. This is made possible by rapid advancements in data storage capacity and performance. A is incorrect because manufacturing automation can be carried out by basic microprocessors and small data sets. B is incorrect because online video gaming does not require extremely large data sets. D is incorrect because mobile devices are constrained by physical size and tend to have less computing power than larger devices, relying on cloud services for more complex computational tasks.
