Dive into Data meetup #13

Talk#1 "SELECT * FROM Chaos: Taming LLMs for Text-to-SQL" by Dmytro Dragan, Lead Big Data Software Engineer at SoftServe

Turning human questions into perfect SQL queries sounds magical—until your AI starts hallucinating joins or inventing tables. This talk dives into the real-world challenges of implementing a Text-to-SQL LLM service, from handling ambiguous queries to keeping performance in check. Expect battle stories, practical insights, and maybe a few rogue DROP DATABASE moments.
