The original idea idea behind SQL was to create a language that looked like English and allowed regular users to express their queries in something that resembled natur Al language. Naturally it has evolved into something far more complex, but maybe today with LLMs it can get back to its origin,

LLMs are getting pretty good at writing SQL. There is so much training material out there, and it is not that hard to validate the results. The real interesting question will be if they will be better at leveraging all the database specific dialects than tool like PowerBI. High-performance databases like Exasol often has a lot of specific features in their SQL dialects that generic tools and ORMs are not able to use, it will be interesting to see if LLMs can make that more accessible.
