Artificial basic intelligence (AGI) is a type of synthetic intelligence (AI) that matches or goes beyond human cognitive capabilities throughout a wide range of cognitive jobs. This contrasts with narrow AI, which is restricted to specific jobs. [1] Artificial superintelligence (ASI), on the other hand, describes AGI that greatly exceeds human cognitive capabilities. AGI is thought about one of the meanings of strong AI.

Creating AGI is a main goal of AI research study and of companies such as OpenAI [2] and Meta. [3] A 2020 study recognized 72 active AGI research and advancement tasks across 37 nations. [4]
The timeline for attaining AGI stays a subject of ongoing dispute among researchers and specialists. As of 2023, some argue that it might be possible in years or decades
