Artificial basic intelligence (AGI) is a type of expert system (AI) that matches or goes beyond human cognitive capabilities across a vast array of cognitive tasks. This contrasts with narrow AI, which is limited to specific tasks. [1] Artificial superintelligence (ASI), on the other hand, refers to AGI that greatly 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 business such as OpenAI [2] and Meta. [3] A 2020 study recognized 72 active AGI research study and development projects throughout 37 nations. [4]
The timeline for achieving AGI remains a subject of ongoing argument among scientists and specialists. As of 2023, some argue that it might be possible in years or years
