Measuring progress toward AGI: A cognitive framework

Measuring progress toward AGI: A cognitive framework Artificial General Intelligence (AGI) has the potential to accelerate scientific discovery and help solve some of humanity’s most pressing problems. But it can be difficult to know how close we are to this key milestone, because there’s a lack of empirical tools for evaluating systems’ general intelligence. Tracking progress toward AGI will require a wide range of methods and approaches, and we believe cognitive science provides one important piece of the puzzle. That’s why today, we’re releasing a new paper, “Measuring Progress Toward AGI: A Cognitive Taxonomy,” that presents a scientific foundation for understanding the cognitive capabilities of AI systems. Alongside the paper, we are partnering with Kaggle to launch a hackathon, inviting the research community to help build the evaluations needed to put this framework into practice.
