General AI, also known as strong AI or artificial general intelligence, is a hypothetical type of AI that would possess the ability to perform any intellectual task that a human being can. This would include tasks that require reasoning, problem-solving, learning, and planning. General AI is still a long-term goal for AI researchers, but it is an active area of research and development.
