A recent Bloomberg article dives into the achievements of Jürgen Schmidhuber. In 1997, Schmidhuber's came up with long short-term memory, or LSTM, a tenet of Artificial General Intelligence (AGI). He states "You can write it down in five lines of code. It can learn to put the important stuff in memory and ignore the unimportant stuff. LSTM can excel at many really important things in today's world, most famously speech recognition and language translation but also image captioning, where you see an image and then you write out words which explain what you see."
