I think what is meant by "simple" in the agi context surrounds the
issue of designating some starting point that is manageable.  There
are so many possibilities for a START out there:  math-first start
(develop the correct formulas), logic-first, psychology-first,
neuroscience-first, physics-first, old-AI first ("we just need the
right algorithms")....  my book argues for a philosophy-first starting
point (I finally got it sent to the printer!).

I think we are all looking for some way of orienting ourselves and in
so doing reducing our starting point to a minimum of concepts that can
be handled.
