Artificial basic intelligence (AGI) is a kind of synthetic intelligence (AI) that matches or surpasses human cognitive capabilities throughout a large range of cognitive tasks. This contrasts with narrow AI, which is restricted to particular jobs. [1] Artificial superintelligence (ASI), on the other hand, refers to AGI that significantly exceeds human cognitive capabilities. AGI is thought about among the definitions of strong AI.

Creating AGI is a primary objective of AI research and of companies such as OpenAI [2] and Meta. [3] A 2020 survey determined 72 active AGI research study and advancement tasks throughout 37 nations. [4]
The timeline for accomplishing AGI stays a subject of continuous dispute among scientists and specialists. As of 2023, some argue that it might be possible in years or years
