This statement belongs to Knowledge Representation and Reasoning. Knowledge representation (KR) and reasoning are closely coupled components; each is intrinsically tied to the other. A representation scheme is not meaningful on its own; it must be useful and helpful in achieve certain tasks. The same information may be represented in many different ways, depending on how you want to use that information. For example, in mathematics, if we want to solve problems about ratios, we would most likely use algebra, but we could also use simple hand drawn symbols. To say half of something, you could use 0.5x or you could draw a picture of the object with half of it colored differently. Both would convey the same information but the former is more compact and useful in complex scenarios where you want to perform reasoning on the information. It is important at this point to understand how knowledge representation and reasoning are interdependent components, and as AI system designer, you have to consider this relationship when coming up with any solution.
