How Mark Zuckerberg Proved AI is All about APIs – The Era of APIs

This week, Mark Zuckerberg published the results of his 2016 project -- building a real world Jarvis. This AI-based personal assistant gets commands from Zuck, and in turn, operates certain parts of his home. Here's a video he posted (with a special voice actor) showing Jarvis' functionalities. One of the things I immediately noticed about this diagram is that Jarvis gains most of his power from connecting through APIs. As you probably know, an API is an applied programming interface that allows one piece of software to talk to another.
