Thats not really fair to the human. The time to learn basic SQL may be longer, but the algorithm will never develop intuition or independence, while many junior analysts will eventually operate effectively on their own.
It’s a neat tool for analysts as a query generator - I would use it in situations where I’m not familiar with the schema, but it would become less useful as I learn.
Yeah, maybe I should've said "first-weeks/months" level junior data analyst.
But hell, as an analyst I would've paid a lot for a tool that searched intelligently through giant datawarehouses (or whatever consultants call them now) and at least gave you probable matches.
Now that same thing exists and you can even finetune its "DSL" towards your own organization.
