Awesome! I suspect that natural language will soon be the default way we interact with data, so I’m excited to see this. There’s just such a clear need for something like this and the technology is finally ready.
(Full disclosure: I have a side project exploring something similar. Demo: https://hermes-odmf.onrender.com https://hermes-odmf.onrender.com. See the Metrics Catalog link for available metrics; all data is from 2018)
- michaelmior 4y agoI'd really like to see studies comparing the accuracy of queries with such a system compared to manually written ones to know if I can actually trust it. Natural language is a great way to interact with data, but only if the intent is correctly translated. With AskEdith you at least get a SQL query that can potentially be reviewed for correctness.
- mjirv 4y agoYes, this is a great point. To a first approximation, whether users trust the results is the only thing that matters for this kind of tech, imo.
