AGI : Artificial General Intelligence

DeepMind’s CEO Demis Hassabis has ventured to say that human level artificial intelligence will be developed in a few years.

There are references to artificial general intelligence (AGI). Here the machines or algorithms match human intelligence. As such AI so far was used for specific tasks. However AGI would be able to learn and adapt to new situations just like human beings.

It will heavily impact finance, transportation and healthcare sector.

There is considerable progress towards developing AGI in recent years. The pace will accelerate, and maybe we can achieve AGI within a decade.

At the same time, there are concerns about the rapid development of AI. Hinton has hinted at the dangers of AI, and has called for a pause on its development. Hassabis is for responsible AI. Jeff Dean from Google too shares his view.
