Meta has extremely opaque account policies. For example, I bought the Meta Raybans a month ago. It kept telling me the AI features were not available in my region, even though I am in San Francisco. I joined Facebook in 2006, and I have used my account for the Oculus headset without a problem. But no matter what I did, the AI function of the Raybans wouldn't work.

I ended up creating a brand new account just for that, and it worked fine. No idea why it would work with a brand new account and not with my old account in good standing, never suspended or warned about anything.

I think the title just resonates. Older folks like me must reflexively upvote this stuff. I admit I do sometimes.

No complaint. It's more of a warning about how the main players (OpenAI, LangChain) share notebooks and cookbooks that illustrate how to make the LLMs "query" the databases. At the very least one would expect some language telling people to not do that in production. And it's not unique to SQL, this is just an extreme example.

tl;dr: nothing we didn't know. Since the beginning of times, startups with lots of funding have failed for a number of reasons. AI is no different in that regard.
