AGI
Artificial general intelligence — hypothetical AI systems with human-level (or beyond) general reasoning capabilities, as distinct from narrow systems trained for specific tasks. Debates around AGI cover both existential risk (could it destroy us?) and moral status (if it has personhood, what do we owe it, and is it ethical to create a sentient being into a world it wasn't adapted for?). One influential view, developed by David Deutsch, treats AGIs as just another kind of person — universal explainers — and argues that enslaving them would be both wrong and dangerous.
