This article explores three distinct methods for converting natural language questions into executable SQL queries, a practical application of generative AI known as Text-to-SQL. The first approach involves using a language model API, such as OpenAI's GPT-4o mini, to translate user questions into SQL, which is then executed against a database like SQLite or PostgreSQL. The second method utilizes autonomous agents, specifically Hugging Face's smolagents library, to enable multi-step reasoning for generating, executing, and self-correcting SQL queries. The third approach, detailed in a freeCodeCamp resource, provides a comprehensive example of building a Text-to-SQL system with a public repository. AI
