Re:TextSQL: Using LLMs to democratize access to data analysis by ftxbro on Thursday April 13, 2023 @01:01PM (#35558507)
Hi, someone was wondering just a couple hours ago on this website what everyone means when they say "democratize" in contexts like this.

https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=35555692

Are you using it as a trendy way to mean "provide" or "make available"? Like "Using LLMs to provide access to data analysis" or "Using LLMs to make data analysis more easily available"?

I think the simple explanation is just that "democratize" in this context just means you can ask your questions in natural language instead of having to learn SQL, access to large datasets to the broader demos.
