An Application Programming Interface (API) is a structured set of rules and protocols that enables different software systems to communicate and share data. It defines how requests and responses are formatted, making it possible for applications to work together without needing to understand each other’s internal code. In artificial intelligence, APIs play a crucial role in connecting applications to AI models, machine learning tools, and cloud-based analytics. They allow developers to easily access pre-trained models, automate workflows, and embed intelligent features like language translation, image recognition, or predictive analytics into their products. APIs also support scalability and standardization, helping organizations integrate AI technologies quickly and efficiently.
