What is the SQL query for: “What was the name of the guy, you know from that consulting company like Deloitte but the other one, who worked on the design for some authentication system last year with Dick?”
I’ve seen LLMs find matches for queries like this, even if “Dick” is a nickname for “Richard”. An awful lot of business questions are in this category and neither relational theory nor full text search is useful to solve such problems.
An LLM coupled with a vector database could solve this, and provide entire new categories of products instead of a sub-standard substitute for an existing product.
