Artificial general intelligence (AGI) is a kind of expert system (AI) that matches or exceeds human cognitive abilities across a broad variety of cognitive tasks. This contrasts with narrow AI, which is limited to particular tasks. [1] Artificial superintelligence (ASI), on the other hand, describes AGI that significantly goes beyond human cognitive capabilities. AGI is considered among the meanings of strong AI.

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