We are proud to share that our recent paper “LLMs for Data Engineering on Enterprise Data” has won the Best Short Paper award of the Tabular Data Analysis Workshop at VLDB'24. Whereas recent studies are optimistic about the use of LLMs for data engineering tasks, we show that LLMs still display severe limitations when faced with real-world usage scenarios like enterprise data.
