Do you know why the robot was extracting vague bits of 'quantum data' from the black hole? Because Nolan was too lazy or simply unable to bother creating any kind of plausible reason why entering a black hole would reveal information necessary to the plot.

Good scifi makes plausible assertions, builds on the known to explore the unknown, carefully constructs plot points that lead to logical conclusions that may or may not be accurate but are at least worth considering.

Bad scifi like this gets stuck in black hole sized plot errors and then burps out "Love", "Quantum Data", "Fate", or "Magic" as the vague solutions to try and fill the holes. Not only did this movie try to do that, the holes were actually too big for them to fill with special effects and metaphysical nonsense.
