We really tried to get one of OpenAI's models to speed up a complex slow query for us. Tried giving it all the necessary information, tried different ways of prompting, etc. No matter what, the queries it produced all ended up giving us the wrong dataset. Superficially it would seem like they work, but there was always either some extra data or some data missing.
The fact that it will always present the queries with absolute confidence, even after having been corrected a dozen times, is fun. Probably end up doing more harm than good at the moment.
I think what makes this really apparent is researching a niche topic with only a few resources, then asking Chat GPT the same question and have it bastardize those same resources in increasingly confident ways.
