Artificial basic intelligence (AGI) is a type of expert system (AI) that matches or goes beyond human cognitive capabilities throughout a vast array of cognitive jobs. This contrasts with narrow AI, which is restricted to specific jobs. [1] Artificial superintelligence (ASI), on the other hand, describes AGI that considerably surpasses human cognitive capabilities. AGI is considered one of the definitions of strong AI.

Creating AGI is a main goal of AI research study and of companies such as OpenAI [2] and Meta. [3] A 2020 survey recognized 72 active AGI research study and development projects throughout 37 nations. [4]
The timeline for attaining AGI stays a subject of continuous debate among scientists and experts. Since 2023, some argue that it may be possible in years or decades
