What is Artificial General Intelligence (AGI)?

AGI is AI that performs most intellectual tasks at or above human level. I call it the most disruptive technology in human history because it hits every industry, profession, and institution at once. Past breakthroughs upgraded single sectors. AGI upgrades cognition itself. It does not just change what we build. It changes who, and what, does the thinking. My forecast: AGI before 2030. Follow the money, not the CEOs: the hyperscalers plan $700 billion of AI spending in 2026 alone. Nobody bets that kind of capital on a maybe. The buildout is the timeline. Since 29 September 2026 the White House and the Big Tech bros call all of this "Super Intelligence" (SI). The name changed. The timeline did not.
