Artificial Superintelligence (ASI) refers to a level of artificial intelligence that surpasses human intelligence across all fields, including creativity, problem-solving, and emotional understanding. Unlike Artificial Narrow Intelligence (ANI), which is designed for specific tasks (like voice assistants or chess programs), or Artificial General Intelligence (AGI), which matches human cognitive abilities, ASI would exceed the capabilities of the smartest humans in every conceivable way.
Imagine an entity that doesn’t just mimic human thought but outperforms it—solving complex global problems like climate change or disease eradication in ways we can’t even fathom, while also adapting, learning, and improving itself at an exponential rate. It could theoretically rewrite its own code, develop new skills without human input, and operate beyond the limits of biological brains, like fatigue or bias.
