Is AlphaZero an example of an AGI?

From DeepMind's research paper on arxiv.org:




In this paper, we apply a similar but fully generic algorithm, which
we call AlphaZero, to the games of chess and shogi as well as Go,
without any additional domain knowledge except the rules of the game,
demonstrating that a general-purpose reinforcement learning algorithm
can achieve, tabula rasa, superhuman performance across many
challenging domains.




Does this mean AlphaZero is an example of AGI (Artificial General Intelligence)?

          Good question!




          • AlphaZero, though impressive in context, is most definitely not a superintelligence or AGI :)


          AGI does not necessarily imply super-intelligence, in the sense that we'd consider an android capable of performing all human activities with the same level as humans as an Artificial General Intelligence.



          But AlphaGo, though strong at the game of Go, is narrowly strong ("strong-narrow AI"), defined as strength in a single problem or type of problem (such as Go and other non-chance, perfect information games.)



          AGI, at minimum, must be about as strong as humans in all problems worked on or solved by humans.
