Artificial general intelligence (AGI)

Genel yapay zekâ (AGI)

D1 · Foundations, models and data

AGI denotes broad cognitive capability, commonly framed as matching human performance across many tasks rather than one specialty.

Review status: 2026-12-07

Technical explanation

Definitions differ; both task breadth and performance matter.

Conceptual boundaries

AGI is not a synonym for consciousness or superintelligence.

Provider-neutral example

Illustrative: solving a new planning task and learning an unfamiliar analytical task would test breadth; one success would not settle AGI status.

Limitations

There is no agreed qualification threshold. This entry classifies no current product as AGI.
