With artificial intelligence evolving at a breakneck pace, the term ‘Artificial General Intelligence’ (AGI) is struggling to encompass the diverse range of AI capabilities emerging. To address this, a Reddit user has suggested introducing two new terms: ‘Artificial Practical Competence’ (APC) and ‘Artificial Economically Disruptive Intelligence’ (AEDI). APC would describe AI systems capable of reliably performing real-world tasks at a human level, emphasizing practical application.

The proposal aims to create a more granular and accurate framework for analyzing and discussing the multifaceted impact of rapidly advancing AI technology.
