AI vs. AGI vs. ASI – What's the Actual Difference?

You've likely seen the terms AGI and ASI thrown around a lot lately, and you may even think you know what they mean - but not everyone agrees on the definition.

I was curious what the ACTUAL distinction is between AI, AGI, and ASI, so I did some research to learn about the history of these terms and what they mean today.

Give it a read and let me know what YOU think AGI really means!

baobun•4mo ago
"AGI" is a fluid term meaning whatever sama thinks will drive up OpenAI valuation this quarter and best avoided unless your intention is to help hoodwink OpenAI investors.

"ASI" is a new one you can throw in if you notice people catching on to our "AGI" bullshitting and allows the user to appear "in the know" at mixers, cocktail parties and your company blog.

"AI" is any stochastic autonomous or generative digital system.

bignorthchris•4mo ago
I cover all of those points in the article.

I agree AGI (and to a lesser extent ASI) are heavily used purely for marketing purposes, but there are valid distinctions that should be discussed and there are instances where a difference needs to be drawn.
