The companies at the frontier are actively working to build artificial general intelligence (AGI), i.e. AI that is as capable as human experts across a wide range of fields. The CEOs of these companies claim that this goal will likely be reached within the next 2-5 years, a view shared by top researchers and engineers both inside and outside of these companies. Once they reach AGI, they plan to push ahead with building “superintelligence,” i.e. AI that is far smarter and more capable than humans.
