I don't care if AI is useful. I'm never letting it anywhere near my database.
Next database versions from major vendors would probably include a super-smart-very-hyped LLM to "help with productivity" and "ease the burden". Then... will wait for more such stories.
people are always clamoring for a database with a natural language interface, so hey why not slap on an LLM that translates from human ramblings into SQL? what could possibly go wrong?
