At this stage at least, it probably doesn't at all. ASObjC is a way of calling methods on Cocoa classes; what's done with the results of doing that is standard AS. You use repeat loops, not for loops, you concatenate strings with &, etc, etc. Many of things that Swift looks to be bringing to the programming table are irrelevant in the context of bridging to AppleScript. Of course it could all change some way down the track, but at this point it would seem a lot of effort for not a lot of reward.
On the other hand, some kind of "do Swift script" command might have interesting possibilities...
