Artificial general intelligence (AGI) refers to AI that can carry out a wide range of intellectual tasks, including unfamiliar problems, at roughly a human level. It is contrasted with narrow AI, which is built for specific tasks such as translation, image recognition or playing a particular game.

There is no single agreed definition of AGI or test for reaching it. Researchers and companies use different criteria, such as capability relative to people, the ability to perform economically valuable work or the efficiency of acquiring new skills, and whether any system qualifies remains a recurring debate in the field.
