Artificial general intelligence (AGI) is a kind of artificial intelligence (AI) that matches or exceeds human cognitive capabilities across a wide variety of cognitive tasks. This contrasts with narrow AI, which is restricted to particular tasks. [1] Artificial superintelligence (ASI), on the other hand, describes AGI that greatly surpasses human cognitive abilities. AGI is considered among the meanings of strong AI.

Creating AGI is a main objective of AI research and of business such as OpenAI [2] and Meta. [3] A 2020 survey determined 72 active AGI research study and development jobs across 37 countries. [4]
The timeline for accomplishing AGI stays a topic of continuous argument among scientists and professionals. Since 2023, some argue that it might be possible in years or years
