I think it's difficult to realize what is gonna be solved by AGI (https://www.wikiwand.com/en/Artificial_general_intelligence) and what not.

Regarding APIs that understand each other, it might very well be too much in the direction of AGI.

That means that if we want to solve this we have to look at research that allow AIs to understand each other.

* Imitation learning

* Language grounding

The latter is also known more abstractly as the symbol grounding problem (https://www.wikiwand.com/en/Symbol_grounding_problem) and led to many debates in history. A collection of APIs seems useful, have them interact with each other - by getting the human out of the loop - might be a lofty but unattainable goal.
