The 17th Annual
AGI Conference
About Us
Artificial General Intelligence (AGI) is an emerging field aiming at the building of âthinking machinesâ; that is, general-purpose systems with intelligence comparable to that of the human mind (and perhaps ultimately well beyond human general intelligence).
While this was the original goal of Artificial Intelligence (AI), the mainstream of AI research has turned toward domain-dependent and problem-specific solutions; therefore it has become necessary to use a new name to indicate research that still pursues the âGrand AI Dreamâ. Similar labels for this kind of research include âStrong AIâ, âHuman-level AIâ, etc. AGI research differs from ordinary AI research by stressing the versatility and wholeness of intelligence, and by carrying out the engineering practice according to an outline of a system comparable to the human mind in a certain sense.
The problems involved in creating general-purpose intelligent systems are very different from those involved in creating special-purpose systems. Therefore, this society is different from conventional AI research societies in its stress on the long-term potential of research towards the ultimate goal of AGI, rather than immediate applications.

Support the AGI Society
and AGI Conference series
The AGI Society promotes the advancement of research in the field of AGI to achieve a synthetic general intelligence capable of human cognitive level and even beyond. The development of true AGI level computing holds unbound potential to help humans and advance civilization.
The AGI Society is a collection of independent researchers, theorists, and developers, committed to developing this goal. Bringing awareness of the groundbreaking advances toward AGI to the general public takes time and people. You can support these important advances, and the knowledge sharing that lets everyone on Earth partake in this important endeavor, by making a donation to the AGI Society.
All of the funds are used to support the stated goals of the AGI Society â facilitating cooperation, communication, study, and pursuit of AGI. This includes the Journal of Artificial General Research and the AGI Conference Series.
