The goals for Datalevin stay the same, which are very different from everyone else’s. I intend to replace SQL, which in my mind is a COBOL era legacy. I am a HCI researcher, after all :-). Don’t think anyone else has such an ambition.

ChatGPT has bigger impact, but it still cannot deal with more complex data needs I believe.

The ability of GPT is limited by length of the generated text, so Datalog is going to win because it is more declarative and shorter.

Huahai00:10:06

It is not uncommon to see pages and pages of SQL, don’t think GPT can do that.

That’s my intuition as well but can’t articulate why.
