Artificial basic intelligence (AGI) is a type of synthetic intelligence (AI) that matches or goes beyond human cognitive abilities across a vast array of cognitive jobs. This contrasts with narrow AI, which is limited to particular tasks. [1] Artificial superintelligence (ASI), on the other hand, describes AGI that greatly surpasses human cognitive abilities. AGI is thought about among the meanings 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 recognized 72 active AGI research study and advancement tasks throughout 37 countries. [4]
The timeline for accomplishing AGI stays a subject of continuous argument amongst scientists and professionals. As of 2023, some argue that it may be possible in years or years
