The concept of Artificial General Intelligence (AGI) is often debated due to varying definitions, leading to disagreements that are more about semantics than actual progress. To move forward, it's crucial to define AGI in testable and falsifiable terms, rather than relying on subjective notions like consciousness or understanding. Several proposed definitions, such as task batteries, economic impact, and efficiency metrics, are evaluated for their testability, fixed pass conditions, and third-party verifiability, with benchmark contamination and slow resolution times being common challenges.
