Artificial General Intelligence
Topic
Artificial general intelligence (AGI) is a hypothetical type of artificial intelligence that would match or surpass human capabilities across virtually all cognitive tasks. Unlike narrow AI, which is specialized for specific tasks, AGI would possess the ability to learn, understand, and apply intelligence in a broad and flexible manner similar to human cognition.
