GenSQL: MIT AI tool for databases

MIT researchers introduce generative AI for databases | MIT News | Massachusetts Institute of Technology

This new tool offers an easier way for people to analyze complex tabular data.

A new tool makes it easier for database users to perform complicated statistical analyses of tabular data without the need to know what is going on behind the scenes.

GenSQL, a generative AI system for databases, could help users make predictions, detect anomalies, guess missing values, fix errors, or generate synthetic data with just a few keystrokes.

GenSQL automatically integrates a tabular dataset and a generative probabilistic AI model, which can account for uncertainty and adjust their decision-making based on new data.

Moreover, GenSQL can be used to produce and analyze synthetic data that mimic the real data in a database. This could be especially useful in situations where sensitive data cannot be shared, such as patient health records, or when real data are sparse.



same name, different tool?


Ever want to quickly create millions of rows of random data for a database, with realistic names, datetimes, etc.? Now you can.
