According to this definition **no finite computational system can be an
AGI**,
so this is definition obviously overly strong for any practical purposes

E.g. according to this, AIXI (with infinite computational power) but not
AIXItl
would have general intelligence, because the latter can only find
regularities
expressible using programs of length bounded by l and runtime bounded
by t

Unfortunately, the pragmatic notion of AGI we need to use as researchers is
not as simple as the above ... but fortunately, it's more achievable ;-)

One could view the pragmatic task of AGI as being able to discover all
regularities
expressible as programs with length bounded by l and runtime bounded by t
...
[and one can add a restriction about the resources used to make this
discover], but the thing is, this depends highly on the underlying
computational model,
which then can be used to encode some significant "domain bias."
