OpenAI’s definition of Artificial General Intelligence (AGI) is: ‘a highly autonomous system that can outperform humans at most economically valuable work.’

This series addresses the theme of AGI. Are we there yet? If not, how far are we away? What would it take to reach AGI? And are the implications – the dangers, the risks and advantages – of reaching AGI?
