Abstract:
The past years have been marked by several breakthrough results in the domain of generative AI, culminating in the rise of tools like ChatGPT, able to solve a variety of language-related tasks without specialized training. In this talk, I outline novel opportunities in the context of data management, enabled by these advances. I discuss several recent research projects at Cornell, aimed at exploiting advanced language processing for tasks such as parsing a database manual to support automated tuning, mining data for patterns, described in natural language, or synthesizing scenario-specific code for data processing via specialized coding assistants. Finally, I discuss our recent and ongoing research, aimed at scaling up analysis of multimodal data via large language models to large repositories.
