It is not generalizable intelligence, its wisdom of the crowds. Claude does not form long term strategies or create predictions about future states. A simpler GOAP engine could create far more elaborate plans and still run entirely locally on your device (while adapting constantly to changing world states).

And yea you could have Claude use a GOAP tool for planning, but all you’re really doing is layering an LLM on top of a conventional AI as a presentation layer to make the lower AI seem far more intelligent than it is. This is why trying to use LLMs for complex decision making about anything that isn’t text and words is a dead end.

Well, we know that some ways to organise crowds work better than others.
