Aside from the enterprise stuff like consistent metrics I’m not convinced semantic layers improve agent performance. Case in point is Snowflake Analyst has been routing 90%+ of queries to traditional SQL as opposed to their own semantic SQL dialect.
A semantic layer is a concept from 2018 in the BI world. Metadata is one thing but semantic layer implies an abstraction from physical data with lossy translations.
I get people want to work at an AI lab but slopping it in public in this manner is counterproductive to the original intended purpose of these places.
Prefer evidence from the eyes over noise from the ears.
Agent swarms solve for number of trials so it becomes more so about what “can” go wrong.
