Artificial general intelligence (AGI) is a kind of expert system (AI) that matches or exceeds human cognitive abilities across a wide variety of cognitive jobs. This contrasts with narrow AI, which is limited to particular jobs. [1] Artificial superintelligence (ASI), on the other hand, refers to AGI that considerably exceeds human cognitive capabilities. AGI is thought about among the definitions of strong AI.

Creating AGI is a main objective of AI research study and of companies such as OpenAI [2] and Meta. [3] A 2020 study identified 72 active AGI research study and advancement projects throughout 37 countries. [4]
The timeline for accomplishing AGI remains a subject of ongoing dispute amongst researchers and experts. As of 2023, some argue that it may be possible in years or decades
