Is it possible to use serverless inference to integrate to a front-end application where the user can ask the AI to enter data into a set of forms. For example, users asks the AI please update my discretionary expenses to $60,000.

Hey Larry,
Yes, that’s definitely possible.
You can use a serverless approach to connect your front-end app with an AI model, for example, sending the user’s prompt to an LLM API like OpenAI or the DigitalOcean GenAI platform, and then parsing the response to update form fields dynamically.
If you’re looking for a low-code option, n8n is a great fit here. It lets you build automated workflows where you can take user input, send it to an AI service, extract the structured output, and update data accordingly:
DigitalOcean even has a 1-click n8n setup here: https://marketplace.digitalocean.com/apps/n8n
