Dfinity’s chief operating officer, Josh Drake, recently showcased the flexibility of Caffeine AI’s marketplace by adapting a jewellery‑focused app into a coffee shop point‑of‑sale system within just two prompts. Sharing the experiment on X, Drake highlighted how the Brilliance Jewelry App was repurposed to serve in a café setting, allowing orders and payments to be processed at the counter.
This exercise sheds light on how generative AI tools can accelerate low‑code solutions across different sectors. By tweaking just a couple of prompts, a tool originally built for showcasing diamonds became capable of running a completely different transactional workflow. Followers on X praised the quick turnaround, noting the potential for small businesses to deploy bespoke tools without extensive development resources.
However, some cautioned that while the demonstration is intriguing, practical deployment would require careful testing—especially around data integrity, durability under daily use and compliance with financial regulations. Drake has yet to share details about whether the tool was tested in live transactions or assessed for reliability.
The broader message aligns with ongoing trends in AI-assisted no‑code platforms, where creative prompt engineering can yield surprisingly rapid results. What remains to be seen is how these quick prototype conversions perform in real‑world environments. The simplicity of the example is appealing, yet users and enterprises may demand robustness and security before adopting AI‑driven solutions in payment settings.
Drake’s experiment opens a conversation about how nimble and responsive AI marketplaces like Caffeine can be. If this ease of adaptation scales effectively, it may offer a compelling route for small operators to build custom tools. But it’s a first step—future updates will need to show that this kind of rapid pivot can stand up to everyday operational demands.
