I agree. I think full text-to-results (even bypassing text-to-SQL) is akin to L5 self-driving cars. It's easy to get to some reasonable level, say 90%. But to get to the point, where folks can fully trust the system and don't need a steering wheel (or know SQL) may take decades.

We at MotherDuck took an incremental approach. We launched something more akin to lane-assist. We're calling it FixIt - an in-flow visual aid to help you identify and fix errors in your SQL [0].

I think there's gobs of opportunities to improve the analytics experiences without resorting to "L5 self-driving" (e.g. full text-to-results)
