Unified AI API Proposal

A proposal for a native, system-level Unified AI API across web, Android, iOS, macOS, Windows, Linux, and other platforms. The AI API provides no-import-required access to AI capabilities (e.g., text generation, image analysis, smart notifications), similar to the Web Notifications API (Notification). A system app lets users select AI models (e.g., Gemini, Apple Intelligence) and configure privacy/performance.

Goals

• Native Integration: Global AI API in each platform’s runtime, no imports needed.
• Unified Interface: Consistent methods and data formats across platforms.
• User Control: System app for model selection and privacy settings.
• System Features: Seamless integration with notifications and other native APIs.
• Privacy/Security: On-device processing, GDPR/CCPA compliance.

Repository Structure

• docs/: Detailed proposal, API spec, platform implementations, and more.
• examples/: Code samples for web, Android, iOS, Windows, Linux.
• mockups/: UI designs for the AI Settings app.
• ISSUE_TEMPLATE/: Templates for bugs, features, and platform feedback.
