Can we write an API in Python with a SQL backend database in just 3 lines with the help of langchain & GPT-3? Let's see!

Lately, I've been having a lot of fun playing around with generative AI tools, mainly the GPT-3 LLM through OpenAIs API. One example is the chat-dbt application, which exposes a ChatGPT-like interface that allows the user to get information about dbt, by ingesting all of its documentation pages into a vector store and combining similarity search with GPT-3 it can answer any question (with a lot of confidence!)

Langchain is a Python library that enables developers to easily implement applications around LLMs by abstracting away most of the gritty parts and providing a clean interface. If you are interested in LLM-based application development, I urge you to give Langchain a try!

Langchain also exposes a component called SQLDatabaseSequentialChain, which enables an LLM to answer questions of a relational database. Basically, the LLM will be able to translate the incoming questions/commands to valid SQL statements, run them and return the result.
