Abstract
A disclosed method facilitates translation of natural language queries into query language statements usable to retrieve data from or write data to a particular database. The method includes obtaining a pool of shots. Each shot in the pool includes a natural language query component and a corresponding database translation component. The method further provides for vectorizing the natural language query component for each of the shots into a common vector space; receiving a natural language query from a user interface; vectorizing the natural language query within the common vector space; identifying a subset of vectorized natural language query components that satisfy a similarity metric when compared to the vectorized natural language query; and generating an LLM prompt that includes shots from the pool corresponding to the subset of the vectorized natural language query.
