Hi Russell,
Question: Why has little if any thought been given in AGI to
self-modeling and some capacity to track the model of self under
the evolutionary transformations?
It's probably because AI's have not needed to operate in
environments where they need a self-model. They are not members of
a social community. Some simpler systems, like Mars Rovers, have
limited self-models (where am I, what's my battery charge,...) that
they need to perform their functions, but they don't have general
intelligence (yet).

Could the efficiency of the computation be subject to modeling?
My thinking is that if an AI could rewire itself for some task to
more efficiently solve that task...
Betting on self-consistency, and variant of that idea, shorten the
proofs and speed the computations, sometimes in the "wrong direction".
On almost all inputs, universal machine (creative set, by Myhill
theorem, and in a sense of Post) have the alluring property to be
arbitrarily speedable.
Of course the rtick is in "on almost all inputs" which means all,
except a finite number of exception, and this concerns more evolution
than reason.
Evolution is basically computation + the halting oracle. Implemented
with the physical time (which is is based itself on computation + self-
reference + arithmetical truth).
