ChatGPT has made writing SQL faster and more flexible than using a BI tool.

This is an interesting inversion for design: chat may ultimately prove to be an easier and more generalized medium than any UI. Dense technical text -> GUI phase -> simple natural language text?

Yeah, good caveat. If I had to painstakingly specify 15 step instructions in natural language, that would likely be slower and more effortful than using a UI. LLMs > UI where task or goal objectives are exploratory or the actions are repeatable

I think it depends on the complexity of the desired goal. For tasks where granularity is less necessary, natural language should be sufficient.
