AGI Ordinal Performance Measure

A AGI Ordinal Performance Measure is a AGI performance measure that defines the levels of capabilities and generality for Artificial General Intelligence (AGI) systems.

• Context:
  • It can (typically) classify AGI Systems based on their levels of capabilities, from Level 0 AGI (No AGI) to Level 5 AGI (Superhuman AGI).
  • It can (often) be used to evaluate the progress and potential of AGI research in various domains.
  • It can range from being a simple classification system to a detailed evaluation framework for assessing AGI capabilities.
  • It can be developed and maintained by research institutions, standardization organizations, and AI industry stakeholders.
  • It can inform policy-making and regulatory frameworks for AGI development and deployment.
  • ...
• Example(s):
  • the Levels of AGI Framework proposed by Morris et al., 2023.
  • the OpenAI AGI Charter for guiding the development of general AI.
  • the Anthropic Responsible Scaling Policy for managing AGI risks.
  • ...
• Counter-Example(s):
  • a Narrow AI Categorization Model, which categorizes AI systems based on specialized tasks.
  • a Non-Generalized AI Evaluation System, which assesses AI systems without considering their generality.
  • ...
