For years, artificial intelligence (AI) has been advancing rapidly, especially with the emergence of innovative tools like ChatGPT and DeepSeek. These advancements have created a need for urgent discussions surrounding regulation, safety, and the long-term implications of AI. The consensus among experts is that we may soon see the birth of AGI, which represents a significant leap beyond current AI capabilities.
AGI refers to machines that possess cognitive functions comparable to, or exceeding, those of humans in virtually every aspect. However, experts harbor divergent opinions about the timeline for its arrival. While some forecast AGI within the next decade, others propose shorter or longer timelines based on varying interpretations of what AGI entails.
