AI Types: ANI, AGI, ASI
This repository explores the theoretical and mathematical foundations of Artificial Intelligence types:
- ANI — Artificial Narrow Intelligence
- AGI — Artificial General Intelligence
- ASI — Artificial Superintelligence
It serves as an educational framework for understanding the cognitive evolution from narrow tools to superintelligent systems through code, formulas, and conceptual models.
- Introduction
Artificial Intelligence (AI) is often grouped into three conceptual types based on its capabilities:
- ANI is task-specific, pattern-based intelligence.
- AGI generalizes learning across domains — closer to human cognition.
- ASI is a hypothetical entity that surpasses human-level reasoning, learning, and creativity.
This project aims to describe each level using mathematical notation and minimal code examples.
- Mathematical Foundations
ANI — Artificial Narrow Intelligence
A narrow AI is typically represented as a function trained for a specific domain:
Where:
- ( x ): input (image, text, etc.)
- ( y ): predicted output
- ( f ): model trained on domain-specific data
These models do not generalize to new contexts.
Example in Python:
from sklearn.linear_model import LogisticRegression
model = LogisticRegression()
model.fit(X_train, y_train)
AGI — Artificial General Intelligence
AGI requires meta-learning capabilities:
Where:
- ( f_i ): function for task i
- ( f_j ): function for task j
- ( M ): meta-model that transforms or generalizes across tasks
AGI should dynamically create or adapt models:
def meta_learn(task_data):
model = initialize_model()
model.train(task_data)
return model
AGI agents must also exhibit:
- Context transfer
- Long-term planning
- Dynamic memory
ASI — Artificial Superintelligence
ASI operates recursively and improves itself beyond human capabilities:
Where:
- ( f_t ): current model at time t
- ( G ): generator or evolver function
This assumes:
- No fixed limits on compute or memory
- Ability to create new learning architectures
"The mind that redesigns itself faster than we can follow."
