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 limited to particular jobs. [1] Artificial superintelligence (ASI), on the other hand, refers to AGI that considerably surpasses human cognitive abilities. AGI is considered one of the definitions of strong AI.

Creating AGI is a main objective of AI research study and of business such as OpenAI [2] and Meta. [3] A 2020 survey identified 72 active AGI research and development projects across 37 nations. [4]
The timeline for attaining AGI remains a topic of continuous dispute amongst researchers and experts. Since 2023, some argue that it may be possible in years or decades
