Artificial Superintelligence. A hypothetical AI system that surpasses human cognitive abilities in every domain. Goes beyond AGI, which matches human intelligence, to exceed it. Most AI researchers consider this a distant possibility, but labs like OpenAI and Anthropic take the possibility seriously in their safety planning.
Artificial General Intelligence.
The science of creating machines that can perform tasks requiring human-like intelligence — reasoning, learning, perception, language understanding, and decision-making.
The broad field studying how to build AI systems that are safe, reliable, and beneficial.
A mathematical function applied to a neuron's output that introduces non-linearity into the network.
An optimization algorithm that combines the best parts of two other methods — AdaGrad and RMSProp.
The research field focused on making sure AI systems do what humans actually want them to do.
