Artificial general intelligence (AGI) is a kind of expert system (AI) that matches or surpasses human cognitive abilities across a large range 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 considerably exceeds human cognitive abilities. AGI is thought about one of the definitions of strong AI.

Creating AGI is a main goal of AI research and of companies such as OpenAI [2] and Meta. [3] A 2020 study recognized 72 active AGI research and advancement projects across 37 nations. [4]
The timeline for achieving AGI remains a topic of ongoing debate amongst researchers and professionals. Since 2023, some argue that it may be possible in years or decades
