using AIXI-type ideas. The problem is that there is nothing, conceptually, in the whole army of ideas surrounding AIXI, that tells you about how to deal with the challenges of finite computational resources.

Yes, indeed I have asked Marcus Hutter about this and his feeling was that real AGI may well turn out to be large and complex, even if the theory behind it isn't too bad. For example, conceptually a database is pretty simple, but actually making an efficient reliable database that can scale to huge data volumes is very complex and takes many many years of work to get right.
