Using solve to find intersection points

Given two functions, f(x) = exp(-x^2) and g(x) = 0.8, how do I use Matlab's solve function to find all intersection points of f(x) and g(x)?

It’s as simple as it looks —
syms x
f(x) = exp(-x^2)
f(x) = 
g(x) = sym(0.8)
g(x) = 
xi = solve(f == g)
xi = 
xi_vpa = vpa(xi)
xi_vpa = 
.
