Strong AI

Strong artificial intelligence (AI) may refer to a range of levels of artificial intelligence in prospective computational systems or to a concept in philosophy:

Computer science

• Artificial consciousness: a hypothetical machine that has subjective conscious experience, sentience, and a mind;
• Artificial general intelligence: a hypothetical human-level or stronger AI with the ability to apply intelligence to any problem, rather than just one specific problem;
• Superintelligence: a hypothetical machine with a vastly superior intelligence to the average human being

Philosophy

• The strong AI hypothesis: the philosophical position that a computer program that causes a machine to behave exactly like a human being would also give the machine subjective conscious experience and a mind, in exactly the same sense that human beings have minds (also known as functionalism or the computational theory of mind)
