Towards Artificial General Intelligence


Artificial General Intelligence (AGI) enables machines to perform cognitive or intellectual tasks that a human can perform. It is a different or a more difficult concept than AI, as AGI involves achieving general intelligence beyond asking a machine to perform a task given necessary data. For example, let's say we put a robot in a novel environment (say, a house that robot has never visited) and ask it to make coffee. If it can actually navigate the house, find the machine, learn how to operate it, execute the correct sequence of actions needed to make coffee and bring the coffee to a human, then we can say that robot has achieved AGI. We are still far from achieving AGI, but steps are being made in that direction. Also, NLP will play a great role in this as the most natural way for humans to interact is vocal communication.

The papers that will be discussed here are single models that try to learn to do many tasks. In other words, a single end-to...
