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

Creating AGI is a primary goal of AI research study and of companies such as OpenAI [2] and Meta. [3] A 2020 survey recognized 72 active AGI research and development projects across 37 countries. [4]
The timeline for attaining AGI stays a topic of ongoing argument amongst scientists and specialists. As of 2023, some argue that it may be possible in years or decades
