Artificial General Intelligence (AGI) refers to a type of artificial intelligence that can understand, learn, and apply knowledge across a wide range of tasks, similar to human intelligence. Unlike narrow AI, which is designed for specific tasks like playing chess or recognizing faces, AGI aims to perform any intellectual task that a human can do. The development of AGI poses significant challenges, including ensuring safety and ethical considerations. Researchers are exploring various approaches to create AGI, but as of now, it remains a theoretical concept, with no existing systems achieving true general intelligence comparable to that of humans.
