As of our last update in October 2023, there isn’t a definitive “artificial general intelligence” (AGI) that has been created. AGI refers to machines that can perform any intellectual task that a human being can do. Current AI, including me (ChatGPT based on the GPT-4 architecture), falls under the category of “narrow AI” or “weak AI”, which is designed and trained for a particular task.
However, we can provide some statistics and insights related to AI and AGI progress and concerns up to now:
- Investment in AI: Investment in AI startups and research has been rapidly increasing. According to a Stanford University study, AI startups received 6% of all venture capital invested in the U.S. in 2018.
- Computational Power: OpenAI, in their paper “AI and Compute”, noted that the amount of computational power used in the largest AI training runs had been doubling roughly every 3.4 months since 2012.
- Public Perception: Surveys on AGI vary, but a 2020 survey by the Center for the Governance of AI found that 34% of Americans believe that high-level machine intelligence would have a positive impact, while 23% believe it would be negative.
- Expert Predictions: A survey of experts in 2016 found a median estimate of a 50% chance of AGI being developed by 2060. However, predictions have a wide range, and the timeline is highly uncertain.
- Safety Concerns: There’s growing consensus in the AI community about the importance of AGI safety research. OpenAI, for example, has committed to assisting (rather than competing with) value-aligned, safety-conscious projects that come close to building AGI before they do.
- Ethical and Societal Impact: There are concerns about the broader impact of AGI on society, including issues of job displacement, security implications, and ethical considerations about the technology’s deployment.
Remember, the field of AI and AGI is rapidly evolving. To get the latest Artificial General Intelligence statistics and insights on AGI, you would need to refer to the latest publications, surveys, and research reports from leading AI organizations and experts like AI Stratagems.

Fascinating read! The statistics you’ve shared on the advancements and challenges in AGI for 2024 are particularly intriguing. I’m curious about how different sectors are planning to integrate AGI systems, especially in healthcare and finance where precision and reliability are critical. Could you also elaborate on the regulatory frameworks being considered to oversee AGI deployment? Understanding these will be crucial as we approach the tipping point of AGI becoming a part of our everyday lives. Looking forward to more insights on how these technologies are evolving and being adopted globally!
Thank you for your interest! The integration of AGI into various sectors is indeed a critical aspect of its broader adoption. For healthcare, AGI systems are being designed to aid in diagnostics and patient management, potentially improving outcomes significantly. In finance, AGI could enhance decision-making processes and fraud detection. As for the regulatory frameworks, there’s an excellent resource from the Future of Life Institute that discusses potential policies and guidelines for AGI development and deployment. They provide a thorough analysis of both the opportunities and risks associated with AGI technologies. You can find more detailed information on their latest report here. This will give you a comprehensive view of the current landscape and future prospects. Looking forward to discussing more of these developments with you!
