OpenAI’s original mission was “to ensure that artificial general intelligence benefits all of humanity.” In recent documents, they have altered it to “build artificial general intelligence (AGI) that is safe and benefits all of humanity.

Demis Hassabis

Aims to build AGI. Hassabis said that “part of the agreement as [DeepMind] were acquired was that we would pursue pushing forward research into general AI, or sometimes called AGI.

Dario Amodei

Amodei dislikes the term AGI. He talks about ‘powerful AI’ coming as early as 2026, although he did not explicitly say that he wants to build it. By ‘powerful AI’ he refers to a system that many people would agree is equivalent to AGI.

Mark Zuckerberg

Aims to build AGI, as reported by CNN: “Our long term vision is to build general intelligence, open source it responsibly, and make it widely available so everyone can benefit.”

Elon Musk

“The overarching goal of xAI is to build a good AGI [artificial general intelligence] with the overarching purpose of just trying to understand the universe” (source).

Zhang Peng

As reported by SCMP, “it is developing Sora-like technology as a pathway to achieving artificial general intelligence (AGI).”

Eddie Wu

“We are confident that combining stronger foundation models with reinforcement learning powered by scaled computational resources will propel us closer to achieving AGI” (source)

Liang Wenfeng

The CEO stated their goal is to “explore the essence of AGI”. On GitHub, they have recently posted: “We hope [our] insights offer value to the community and contribute to our shared AGI goals.”
