Big brain tech dude got yet another clueless take over at HackerNews etc? Here's the place to vent. Orange site, VC foolishness, all welcome.

I've done some work on natural language to SQL, both with older (like Bert) and current LLMs. It can do alright if there is a good schema and reasonable column names, but otherwise it can break down pretty quickly.

Thats before you get into the fact that SQL dialects are a really big issue for LLMs to begin with. They all looks so similar I've found it common for them to switch between them without warning.
