 [Semantic Kernel](https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/semantic-kernel/overview/) is an SDK that integrates Large Language Models (LLMs) like [OpenAI](https://platform.openai.com/docs/introduction), [Azure OpenAI](https://azure.microsoft.com/en-us/products/ai-services/openai-service), and [Hugging Face](https://huggingface.co/)
 with conventional programming languages like C#, Python, and Java. Semantic Kernel achieves this by allowing you to define [plugins](https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/semantic-kernel/ai-orchestration/plugins??tabs=Java&pivots=programming-language-java) that can be chained together in just a [few lines of code](https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/semantic-kernel/ai-orchestration/chaining-functions?tabs=Java&pivots=programming-language-java#using-the-runasync-method-to-simplify-your-code).
 
-What makes Semantic Kernel _special_, however, is its ability to _automatically_ orchestrate plugins with AI. With Semantic Kernel [planners](https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/semantic-kernel/ai-orchestration/planner?tabs=Java&pivots=programming-language-java), you can ask an LLM to generate a plan that achieves a user's unique goal. Afterwards, Semantic Kernel will execute the plan for the user.
+What makes Semantic Kernel _special_, however, is its ability to _automatically_ orchestrate plugins with AI. With Semantic Kernel, you can combine plugins and prompts to create intelligent workflows that achieve your goals.
