Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang said Friday that artificial general intelligence (AGI) could, by some definitions, arrive in as little as five years.Huang, who leads the world's leading maker of artificial intelligence chips used to create systems like OpenAI's ChatGPT, appeared at an economic forum held at Stanford University where he was asked about how long it would take to achieve AGI with computers capable of thinking like humans.He responded that the answer largely depends on how the goal of AGI is defined. If the definition is the ability to pass human tests, Huang said that AGI will arrive soon."If I gave an AI… every single test that you can possibly imagine, you make that list of tests and put it in front of the computer science industry, and I'm guessing in five years time, we'll do well on every single one," Huang said.NVIDIA CEO IS $9.6B RICHER AS AI CHIPMAKER'S STOCK SOARSCurrently, AI can pass tests like legal bar exams but has struggled on specialized medical tests like gastroenterology.Based on other definitions of AGI, Huang said it may be much farther away because there is still disagreement among scientists about how to describe how human minds work."Therefore, it's hard to achieve as an engineer" because engineers need defined goals, Huang said.NVIDIA'S STOCK SOARS AFTER AI BOOM LIFTS REVENUE 265%The Nvidia CEO also addressed a question about how many more chip factories, called "fabs" in the industry, are needed to support the expansion of the AI industry. Media reports have indicated that OpenAI CEO Sam Altman thinks many more fabs will be needed, and he has pursued funding for an AI chip venture.WHAT IS ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE (AI)?Huang said that more fabs will be needed but noted that each chip will also get better over time, which limits the number of chips required by customers."We're going to need more fabs. However, remember that we're also improving the algorithms and the processing of (AI) tremendously over time," Huang said. "It's not as if the efficiency of computing is what it is today, and therefore the demand is this much. I'm improving computing by a million times over 10 years."Nvidia recently surpassed the threshold of $2 trillion in market capitalization, surpassing Google parent company Alphabet's $1.71 trillion and Amazon's $1.85 trillion to become the third-largest U.S. company by market cap – trailing only Microsoft and Apple.GET FOX BUSINESS ON THE GO BY CLICKING HERENvidia's stock is up 70.8% so far in 2024.
