Section 1
The big idea
SQL is a language databases speak. AI is fluent. Tell it your table structure and what you want, and it gives you the query. Just always run on a test DB first.
Some examples
- Ask: 'SQL to get top 10 users by total order value last month.'
- Have AI write the same query in MySQL and Postgres so you see differences.
- Get AI to explain LEFT JOIN vs INNER JOIN with your tables.
- Ask AI to optimize a slow query you're already running.
Try it!
Make up a fake 'users' and 'orders' table. Ask AI for a query that finds users who haven't ordered in 30 days. Read the SQL and trace the logic.
