Have an AI write SQL, and check it

An AI can draft a SQL query in seconds that runs fine yet doesn't necessarily measure what you are after. You learn to give it the right context, have it explain its choices and review its work before trusting the result. A real time saver, without decisions based on a wrong number or data leaks.

What you will learn in this module

This lesson is part of the course Model your product’s data and query it with SQL

  • Model the data of a feature (entities, attributes, relationships, keys, cardinalities) and get the model validated by the engineering team.
  • Turn a product question into a verifiable query, using CTEs and simple window functions (ROW_NUMBER, LAG, SUM OVER).
  • Query data read-only while protecting personal data, and have an AI draft SQL while checking every query before using its result.
