alt Hacker NewsI am doing nothing, but I was wondering if it would make sense to combine a small LLM and SQLITE to parse date time human expressions. For example, given a human input like "last day of this month", the LLM will generate the following query `SELECT date('now','start of month','+1 month','-1 day');`
It is probably super overengineering, considering that pretty good libraries are already doing that on different languages, but it would be funny. I did some tests with chatGPT, and it worked sometimes. It would probably work with some fine-tuning, but I don't have the experience or the time right now.

What libraries have you seen that do this?

yeah, could you share those libraries please?
Anyone around have actually succeeding in solving this in a way it works? Would appreciate any hints.
LLMs tend to REALLY get this wrong. Ask it to generate a query to sum up likes on items uploaded in the last week, defined as the last monday-sunday week (not the last 7 days), and watch it get it subtly wrong almost every time.
