Artificial Intelligence (AI) is a transformative force that is reshaping industries from healthcare to finance today. Yet, the distinction between AI and Artificial General Intelligence (AGI) is not always clearly understood and is causing confusion as well as fear. AI is designed to excel at specific tasks, while AGI is a theoretical concept that would be capable of performing any intellectual task that a human can perform across a wide range of activities. While AI already improves our daily lives and workflows through automation and optimization, the emergence of AGI would be a transformative leap, radically expanding the capabilities of machines and redefining what it means to be human.
