A new paper revisits the field of LLM Text-to-SQL by proposing an autonomy-based taxonomy and an empirical benchmark analysis. The authors collected reported metrics and organized them along an inference-autonomy axis, spanning constrained, in-context, iterative, agentic, and reasoning-internalized generation. Their case study on the Spider benchmark compared various open-source models with and without chain-of-thought supervision against established baselines, revealing that increased autonomy comes at a cost and that chain-of-thought supervision primarily benefits more complex queries.
