What is artificial general intelligence (AGI)?
Artificial general intelligence (AGI) is most commonly defined as AI that can do essentially all of the cognitive tasks that humans do, at a comparable or higher performance level.1
Nobody has built AGI yet, but some AI labs are explicitly trying to. Many experts expect that AGI will be built in the not-too-distant future. We don’t know what the first AGI will look like or whether it can be produced by scaling current architectures (such as GPT).
There isn't a universally agreed-upon definition for AGI, and there are multiple terms for similar concepts. ↩︎
