Redirected from: true AI

Definition: AGI


(1) For advanced geospatial intelligence, see DOD intelligence glossary.

(2) (Artificial General Intelligence) A machine intelligence that is equal to or greater than that of a human being. AGI (strong AI, true AI) learns on its own and can solve many tasks, while narrow AI (weak AI, ordinary AI), such as ChatGPT and other chatbots are not adaptable and must be trained. See ChatGPT.

A true general-purpose AI has people concerned that too much control will be given to machines in the future. The predictions for when AGI becomes commonplace run the gamut from "a couple years" to 2050 and beyond. See AI anxiety and OpenAI AGI stages.

Super AI
Super AI, also known as "artificial super intelligence" (ASI) goes beyond AGI, providing even greater reasoning. Or as many believe, complete nonsense. The only thing guaranteed is that the terminology used to define and describe futuristic AI will be contradictory and confusing, at least for the foreseeable future. See AI stages and technology singularity.
