> but if there was an AI between these things, then it becomes a universal plugin system
I've reread the article a couple times and I can't see where it says that you need to use an LLM to make it universal. I'm going to go so far as to say that it doesn't say that.
I agree, the article does explicitly say that; the thesis of the article and the information it presents to support that thesis are entirely at odds. That's what I'd argue this is a poor article, just an advertisement for the world's eighty-sixth todo app; yet it keeps getting re-posted here.
