The Future Of Artificial General Intelligence Posted on : Jul 16 - 2021

With the latest advancements in artificial intelligence (AI), achieving human-like intelligence is gradually transitioning to the realm of possibility. And with disruptors like the Covid-19 pandemic ravaging the global economy, the race to achieve artificial general intelligence may have sped up significantly.

I would like to share some insights on the challenges and opportunities intertwined with the path to achieving AGI and the future ahead.

What is artificial general intelligence?

Artificial intelligence can be broadly categorized into three main types: artificial narrow intelligence (ANI), artificial general intelligence (AGI) and artificial superintelligence (ASI). Amongst these, AGI positions artificial intelligence at par with human capabilities. As a result, AGI systems can think, comprehend, learn and apply their intelligence to solve problems much like humans would for a given situation.

The anthropomorphic capabilities that convert artificial intelligence into artificial general intelligence include:

• Sensory perception.

• Fine motor skills.

• Natural language processing and understanding.

• Navigation.

• Problem-solving.

• Social and emotional engagement.

• Creativity.

In simpler words, if AGI is achieved, machines would be capable of understanding the world at the same capacity as any human being. And based on these external inputs, they can discover solutions to an ongoing problem. View More
