Who Coined the Term 'AGI'? The Real Inventor Finally Identified
Artificial General Intelligence (AGI), often seen as the holy grail of AI, was first popularised in 2005 by Ben Goertzel and Cassio Pennachin through their book Artificial General Intelligence. However, the phrase originated in 1997, when researcher Mark Gubrud used it in a paper describing AI systems capable of human-like reasoning and problem-solving. Since then, AGI has come to symbolise both innovation and existential anxiety in technology.
