Artificial general intelligence (AGI) is a type of artificial intelligence (AI) that matches or exceeds human cognitive abilities across a wide variety of cognitive jobs. This contrasts with narrow AI, which is limited to specific tasks. [1] Artificial superintelligence (ASI), on the other hand, refers to AGI that considerably goes beyond human cognitive abilities. AGI is thought about one of the definitions of strong AI.

Creating AGI is a primary objective of AI research study and of business such as OpenAI [2] and Meta. [3] A 2020 survey identified 72 active AGI research and advancement tasks throughout 37 countries. [4]
The timeline for achieving AGI stays a subject of continuous debate amongst scientists and experts. As of 2023, some argue that it may be possible in years or years
