What is Strong AI / AGI?

• A. Human-level general intelligence across tasks and domains.
• B. An AI that solves a single narrow task exceptionally well.
• C. AI that can only reason about mathematical problems.
• D. AI that uses quantum computing to speed up tasks.

Answer: (A)

Strong AI or AGI means a system that has human-level general intelligence across a wide range of tasks and domains. It isn’t limited to one activity; it can learn new problems, reason with flexibility, understand language, plan, and adapt to unfamiliar situations, transferring knowledge from one area to another. This distinguishes it from others that focus on a single task or function. The idea that AI only solves one narrow problem or that intelligence would come from faster hardware like quantum computing doesn’t capture the breadth of capabilities AGI requires.
