Artificial General Intelligence: The growth of robots? By Aditya Abeysinghe Artificial Intelligence (AI) is the type of intelligence that current machines possess. It is based on learning methods such as deep learning and natural language processing. Using these methods machines could imitate humans and automate processes. However, AI-based processes cannot think similarly as humans when faced with unknown scenarios. Therefore, Artificial General Intelligence (AGI) has been used where cognition and other deep AI methods have been added to current AI-based methods. What are the features? A feature of AGI is the autonomous nature of problem solving. For example, systems which use autonomy to handle tasks use problem solving and creativity skills of AGI. Autonomous robots in vehicles and manufacturing plants are fine examples for such AGI-based autonomous systems. Techniques such as semi-supervised learning are used to experiment with data and unknown cases. Another feature that can be expected from AGI ...
