Artificial basic intelligence (AGI) is a kind of expert system (AI) that matches or goes beyond human cognitive capabilities across a large range 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 significantly exceeds human cognitive capabilities. 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 determined 72 active AGI research and development projects throughout 37 nations. [4]
The timeline for attaining AGI stays a topic of continuous argument among researchers and specialists. Since 2023, some argue that it may be possible in years or decades
