Yeah, I think those are similar concepts. Intuition and Instinct. Either word probably works.

I don't think knowledge is the right word. Based on your description, that would be more analogous to an instinct. Knowledge implies something like awareness, or planning. Instinct is something it just does because that's what it learnt.
