Artificial general intelligence (AGI) is a kind of expert system (AI) that matches or surpasses human cognitive abilities across a wide variety of cognitive jobs. This contrasts with narrow AI, which is restricted to specific tasks. [1] Artificial superintelligence (ASI), on the other hand, describes AGI that significantly exceeds human cognitive capabilities. AGI is thought about among the meanings 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 and advancement jobs throughout 37 nations. [4]
The timeline for achieving AGI remains a subject of continuous dispute among scientists and experts. Since 2023, some argue that it may be possible in years or decades
