Artificial basic intelligence (AGI) is a kind of synthetic intelligence (AI) that matches or goes beyond human cognitive abilities throughout a large range of cognitive tasks. This contrasts with narrow AI, which is limited to particular tasks. [1] Artificial superintelligence (ASI), on the other hand, refers to AGI that greatly goes beyond human cognitive capabilities. AGI is considered one of the definitions of strong AI.

Creating AGI is a primary goal of AI research study and of business such as OpenAI [2] and Meta. [3] A 2020 study determined 72 active AGI research and advancement tasks throughout 37 nations. [4]
The timeline for attaining AGI remains a topic of ongoing debate amongst scientists and experts. Since 2023, some argue that it may be possible in years or years
